Description

This exceptional 79-acre orchard property in Eltopia, Washington, presents a lucrative investment opportunity. Located 15 miles north of Pasco, conveniently situated between the Columbia River and Highway 395, this prime agricultural land is part of the Columbia Basin Irrigation Project, ensuring a reliable water supply. The orchard boasts approximately 74 acres of modern V-trellised apple and cherry trees, featuring a mix of high-demand varieties including Aztec Fuji, Golden Delicious, Gala, Honeycrisp, Evercrisp apples, and Benton & Coral Champagne cherries. Tree ages range from 1998 to 2011, with re-grafts incorporated. The planting density is 4x16 for apples and 10x16 for cherries, utilizing N-26, N-29, and 109 rootstock. The irrigation system utilizes under-tree emitters, supplemented by a water allotment permanently tied to the land (approximately $6,000 annual cost). Frost protection is ensured by four propane-fired wind machines (three auto-start, one manual). On-site improvements include a 1965 single-wide mobile home (18ft x 50ft) for housing, plus two additional outbuildings for storage and repairs. The property's location within a thriving orchard community offers potential for expansion or diversification. Electricity is provided by Big Bend Electric Cooperative; domestic water comes from private wells, and sewage disposal is via private septic systems. The property is easily accessible, with proximity to Tri-Cities Airport (15 miles), Moses Lake (50 miles), and Yakima (99 miles). This turnkey operation is ready for immediate production. The remaining acreage includes homesites, bin collection areas, and roadways.
