This highly specific designation presents both unique opportunities and tight restrictions:The Multi-Parcel Advantage - The listing notes that the 1955 secondary cottage sits on its own distinct 1-acre parcel included in the sale.The Legal Reality: This is a major selling point. Under Clark County's strict Rural (R5) code, building a brand-new detached Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is generally prohibited unless it qualifies for a strict medical or senior caretaker exception.

It functions as a legal, independent second residence. Agricultural Infrastructure & Water Rights - The pear orchard had been certified organic by WSDA and the property possesses a water rights (Permit #G2-24556C, allowing to draw up to 9 acre-feet annually) Zoning Allowance: Clark County explicitly permits exempt agricultural buildings (such as barns, greenhouses, or processing sheds) in the R5 zone to support an active horticultural operation.The Practical Win: Any buyer looking to commercialize the 15-ton Bartlett pear orchard or expand into boutique cider production has a massive structural advantage. The water rights are legally tied to the land, saving a future owner years of bureaucratic red tape and tens of thousands in utility development costs. an exceptional and storied property offering two separate tax lots totaling approximately 5 acres in beautiful Ridgefield, WA.
