This central Idaho grass ranch is located South of Arco, and just east of Butte city, Idaho, directly borders US 20-26 and consists of 400 deeded acres. Of those 400 deeded acres, there are wheel lines that cover approximately 105 acres, and nearly 175 acres that are flood irrigated via a canal that runs through the property. The remainder of the acreage consist of native grasses and brush. The entire property is fenced and cross fenced. The owner reports that under current conditions and set up, and on a good wet spring, the ranch offers 1 cutting, and approximately 110+/- ton of grass. The ranch has 32 inches of 1885 surface water rights, 28.5 inches of 1890 surface water rights, and 103 inches of 1979 ground water rights. There is currently no well on the premises (ask listing agent for irrigation details) The ranch has been leased out for the last few years and the seller reports that 35 pair plus heifers/steers could comfortably be run each season. Multiple new culverts are currently being installed (October 2022) In addition to the ranching way of life, comes the possibility of geothermal, gravel pit, and home-site development. This area reportedly contains geothermal water at depths of 400-1000 feet deep. There are geothermal greenhouses in the immediate vicinity and Butte city itself, at one time, made use of the geothermal water for the residents for that town. The 400 acres border large existing gravel pits and could possibly be used for that same thing. Having direct US Highway 20/26 access and with the new additions to the Idaho National Laboratory, this area is set to grow over the next few years. There really are endless possibilities here.
