R&B Cattle and Horse Ranch Becomes Oregon’s Highest Listing at $24M

What can $24 million buy you? In New York City, it’s likely to be a pretty good view of Central Park and a doorman, but if you’re in the beaver state, you can lock down the most expensive home on the market, the 507-acre R&B Ranch in Deschutes County, 15 minutes from Bend. Not only does it include eight bedrooms and eight-and-a-half baths, it’s also a fully functional cattle and horse ranch.

The 14,666 square foot main home, constructed of locally sourced stone and timber, is certainly a sprawling affair, but as the listing agent notes, “it doesn’t feel overbuilt.” Rich accents include dark beams on the light wood ceilings, polished wood- and leather-clad furnishings, oiled bronze lighting fixtures, wide plank floors and tray ceilings.

There’s an elegant media room with 15 theater seats and four railed balconies, a wine vault and a home office with wood-framed sliding doors that lead to one of the home’s many patio areas in the main house, while a barn with a poker-table equipped saloon, indoor and outdoor horse arenas, housing for livestock and a nine-stall horse shop with bays as big as Manhattan two-bedrooms are just some of the property’s other amenities.

There’s also a 6,263-square-foot guesthouse and a 3,727-square-foot house for the ranch manager, as well as a pond stocked with trout and some of the more breathtaking views we’ve seen of late, with a vista that includes dense pine forest and the Cascade Mountains.
