About this home
Experience small-town Americana in Fossil, Oregon, where fishing, hunting and exploring opportunities abound. World class fishing on the John Day River, hunting for deer, elk, turkey and well… fossils, is just part of the appeal! Fossil is the Wheeler County seat and offers many everyday amenities, including a grocery store, eating establishment, gas station, museum, medical clinic and Life Flight is available for major medical emergencies. Community traditions include the county fair, annual bluegrass festival, and stopping in for a cup of coffee at the neighbors (warning - your hand may get tired waving as you drive, people are friendly here). Built in 1900, the historic four-bedroom home sits on over half an acre with big trees, a large yard, excessive RV parking and room for animals, yes there are horses in town. The wraparound porch adds to the home's historic character. Inside you'll find high ceilings, abundant natural light and beautiful oak floors. There are new vinyl windows throughout, a newer dishwasher and propane stove rated for 2,200 square feet. City services and an abundance of hidden storage add to the homes appeal. The main-level primary suite is currently used as a living room, but served as a primary bedroom in the past and features a beautiful bay window, high ceiling and French doors (renters using as a living room). The Jack-and-Jill bathroom has a clawfoot tub, separate shower and large walk-in closet with laundry hookups. Upstairs are three more bedrooms with zonal heat and a large bathroom with a second clawfoot tub and plenty of room for a future shower install if desired. Fossil is the heart of Eastern Oregon's open country, where cowboys are king, kids are appreciated and elders respected. Fishing the John Day after a hard days work, or instead of a hard days work, is just expected here....
