Cooper Ranch

Farm Description

The Cooper Ranch is situated in the small community of Albion, Idaho, and features spectacular views of the local mountain range, part of the Sawtooth National Forest. Just minutes from town, the property is host to grazing cattle from spring through fall. The ranch is fully fenced, and water for the livestock is provided by two ditches and a small pond. Additional livestock grazing on an adjacent 167-Acre BLM parcel is in place for the next owner. A portion of the property is covered with sagebrush, providing excellent habitat for pheasant and partridge. Deer also frequent the property as do coyotes, sandhill cranes, foxes, and nesting owls. The ranch sits at about 4,800 feet in elevation and is relatively flat, but a sloping hillside at the northwest corner of the property provides an ideal setting for a home to maximize valley and mountain views. This property is located in a community with a strong pioneering heritage. Albion residents cherish their ranching and farming lifestyle, so this property would be an ideal candidate for a conservation-minded buyer. There are numerous recreational opportunities in the surrounding area, including snow skiing at Pomerelle Resort, snowmobiling and mountain biking in the Albion Mountains, as well as climbing and camping in the City of Rocks National Reserve. Albion is ideally situated between Boise and Salt Lake City, a 2.5-Hour drive in each direction, and is just 20 minutes from Burley, Idaho, with its numerous shopping and dining options.
