A small town in its own right, the breathtaking Buck Quarter Ranch, an approximately 900-acre property, has been co-listed for $14,000,000 by Cassandra Petersen, an agent affiliated with the Pacific Palisades office of Coldwell Banker Realty, and Megan and Rich Watson of The Watson Group of Compass. Located at 152 Locke Cutoff Rd. in Cusick, Wash., this heartwarming haven encompasses 150 private acres of Brownie Lake and Metcalf Lake, 40 acres of lush-fenced pasture and 360 acres of enchanting woodland. Both Brownie and Metcalf Lakes are lovingly maintained, aerated and stocked yearly, ensuring delightful year-round fishing experiences.
“Nestled amid the breathtaking landscapes of Northeastern Washington, Buck Quarter Ranch embraces its guests with a sense of seclusion and serenity,” said Petersen. “Sprawling across 900 acres of pristine land, this equestrian estate offers a private compound off the grid, yet conveniently accessible to recreational and metropolitan areas.”
While the surrounding Pend Oreille County boasts a low population density, with a close-knit community of around 13,000 residents, the ranch remains connected to nearby Newport, Wash., and its residential services are within half an hour. Moreover, it lies within an hour's reach of the vibrant cities of Spokane, Wash., and Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Nearby Sandpoint, Idaho, offers an array of lifestyle attractions, ranging from cozy eateries and art galleries to entertaining venues.
Buck Quarter Ranch presents seven distinct structures. From an awe-inspiring nearly 12,000-square-foot main house, opulent spa pavilion and classic log cabin, to the elegant approximately 2,800-square-foot guest house, every corner exudes warmth and welcoming hospitality. Offering convenience and seclusion, the property also has a caretaker's house, helicopter pad and fully-equipped nearly 6,800-square-foot shop. At the ranch entrance stands the equestrian center and cattle field, numerous stalls, a wash station and vast pastures.
The magnificent main house is at the heart of the estate, a true masterpiece of high lodge style. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this log structure gracefully sits on the edge of the lake, offering panoramic views. From its commanding two-story fireplace to its vaulted ceilings and stenciled-cut railings, the main house reflects the epitome of artistry and luxury. Each space is illuminated with stunning imported chandeliers, while the carefully designed lighting system accentuates the architectural marvels.
Connected to the main house, the exquisite spa pavilion and pool house are a haven of relaxation and leisure. Housing a lap pool, children's pool and a 12-seat whirlpool spa, this approximately 8,000-square-foot log structure also provides a Swedish dry sauna, steam room and an exercise room. A grand lounge is surrounding a two-sided stone fireplace, along with a well-appointed poker room, further adding to the allure of this lakeside retreat.
Residing beside Metcalf Lake, the nearly 2,800-square-foot elegant guest house offers majestic lake views, a gourmet kitchen and luxurious amenities. Preserving the ranch's rustic roots, a charming approximately 500-square-foot log cabin adds a touch of quaint charm to the estate with a tranquil perch for enjoying wildlife or intimate evenings.
Beyond its world-class facilities, the ranch grounds offer an abundance of outdoor sporting opportunities from a shooting gallery and rifle range to fishing and swimming docks. Summers can be enjoyed on the wade-in sandy beach or lake island with a remote spit adorned with an authentic teepee and a fire pit for memorable nights beneath the stars.
