More Land for Lower Prices - Central Oregon Real Estate Value!

Yarrow is now offering the best real estate values in Central Oregon. We have made plans to create much larger homesites, which have been relisted for sale at reduced prices. We have also reduced prices on other homesites, with prices starting at less than $20,000.

“Our clients have been giving us consistent feedback that they wanted larger homesites,” said Kathy Duman, broker with Yarrow Realty. “In order to better serve them, we have gone back to the drawing board and dramatically increased many of our lot sizes in Phase One of Yarrow. We are confident that this is the best value available in Central Oregon right now.”

The increase will result in homesites that are more than double the previous lot size, with new sizes ranging from approximately 12,800 to 29,000 square feet. These expanded lots are now priced from $27,300 to $61,900. One homesite in Phase One, which is not part of the expansion plan, is priced at $19,900 (certain home building requirements apply).

We are also offering a unique building incentive so you can get an additional 10% back on your purchase. If you receive a certificate of occupancy for your new home within 24 months of purchase, utilize a Yarrow neighborhood builder (Sage Builders, Sun Forest Construction or SunWest Builders) and use JELD-WEN windows and doors, Yarrow will refund 10% of the total homesite price.

Beautiful New Artwork Graces Yarrow's Entrance

20 August 2008 - Madras, OR - Madras Public Arts Commission, City of Madras and Yarrow today announced that the second major piece of public art was installed in Madras last Friday. The piece, entitled "Red Tail", was created by Pullman, WA artist Miles Pepper, and sits in the roundabout at the intersection of City View and Yarrow.

"Making a piece of art like this available to the entire community is a monumental accomplishment," said Cameron Craig, project manager for Yarrow, which provided funding for the project. "Miles' hawk sculpture provides a mix of the beauty of the high desert with intricate futuristic mechanics. It is the perfect sculpture for Madras."

"Red Tail" is a giant metal hawk boasting a 15-foot wingspan that acts as a weather vane, with wings that move and fold back in the wind. It is perched atop a 25-foot steel sculpture in the shape of an arrowhead.

Miles Pepper creates kinetic mechanisms set into motion by the natural movement of air.
