A recreational suburb in southwest Oregon
Eden Orchards is known for its vast farmland, large homes and recreation along the nearby Umpqua River and Callahan Mountains. “The area has some of the most desirable land in Douglas County,” says Ryan Fox, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Real Estate Professionals with more than two decades of experience in Roseburg. The neighborhood is 10 miles from downtown Roseburg, where most people go for grocery hauls, weekend activities or daily work commutes. “Recreation is the big thing here since it’s close to a lot of activities – the mountains allow for hiking, biking and four-wheeling,” says Paul Haddock, a Realtor with Keller Williams Southern Oregon-Umpqua Valley who has been selling homes for three decades. The median home costs price is $307,000, and Haddock says he doesn’t see many first-time homebuyers in Eden Orchards. “It’s for the step-up buyers,” he says.
Ranch-style homes starting at $300,000
Ranch-style and manufactured homes are priced between $300,000 and $400,000, depending on the number of rooms and acreage. Custom contemporary homes built in the late 1990s with stone detailing can cost more than $1 million. Haddock says most homes have at least two to five acres. “You can find bigger, up to 100 acres, but it’s not the norm,” he says. “Either way, you won’t find any subdivisions.” Properties have woodsy backyards and long, paved driveways leading directly to the road. People often get their steps in by walking around their yards, which can have gardens, fruit trees and barns.
