Headwaters Ranch – 82± Acres | Quilcene, Washington
Welcome to Headwaters Ranch, an 82.09± acre expanse of meadows, forest, and possibility nestled in the foothills above Crocker Lake. Comprising six contiguous parcels (APNs 802123017, 802123016, 802123015, 802114003, 802141003) and zoned RR-20, this unique property offers exceptional versatility for residential development, agricultural pursuits, conservation stewardship, or light commercial use.
The land unfolds in varied layers—open pasture, gently sloped timberland, and protected wetland corridors—bordered on the east by State Forest land for permanent privacy. Portions of the property are enrolled in a USDA Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) easement, preserving habitat while allowing compatible uses such as grazing, pasture management, and wildlife enhancement. The NRCS Compatible Use Plan identifies approximately 8.7± acres of open meadow, divided into four wildlife fields ranging from 0.3 to 7.3 acres.
A gently elevated building area crowns the central ridge, offering sweeping territorial views and a natural setting for a primary residence or estate compound. Existing improvements include a single-room cabin with loft (approx. 420 sq ft), barn with stalls and paddocks, shop, equipment shed, 4-bedroom septic system, water holding tank, and gated access. These established utilities provide a strong foundation for expansion, whether for residential homesites, agritourism, or a private retreat (buyer to verify).
Recorded access and utility easements traverse the property and connect to Highway 101, ensuring reliable ingress and egress throughout Sections 11–14 (T28N R2W). The topography, infrastructure, and zoning collectively allow a variety of paths forward—from low-density residential development to a conservation-minded community, working ranch, or nature-based business.
Headwaters Ranch is a rare offering in Jefferson County—a property where development potential, natural beauty, and rural character coexist. Whether envisioned as a private homestead, residential enclave, equestrian facility, or retreat destination, this land provides both flexibility and peace of mind in equal measure.
