‘Dallas’ star Patrick Duffy’s giant Oregon ranch to sell at auction

Real Estate

A rambling property that has long been owned by actor Patrick Duffy will soon hit the auction block with no minimum reserve price. 

In southwestern Oregon, his Rogue Valley ranch is set to begin accepting bids this Thursday, and will remain open through the 14th, Mansion Global first reported.

The 300-plus-acre property has belonged to Duffy — who is best known for playing Bobby Ewing on the CBS primetime show “Dallas,” which ran from 1978 to 1991 — for more than 30 years.

“In 1990, my wife and I took a walk around a parcel of land that was for sale in South Oregon — 130 acres on the Rogue River,” Duffy, 74, said in a statement, according to Mansion Global. “Strolling through the forest, sitting on a log by the river, finding arrowheads in an old orchard, or scaring elk, deer quail or wild turkeys we felt the land itself talking to us … It felt immediately like home.”

Duffy and his late wife purchased the parcel for approximately $1.5 million, and in the subsequent years added additional plots to it, bringing the swath to its current size. 

Last year, the soap opera star attempted to offload the sprawling estate for $14 million, the Wall Street Journal reported at the time. 

Bids this week are estimated to be in the $3 million to $5 million range.

In all, the property, which is composed of a total of nine parcels, boasts a 2-acre pond, two houses — one of which has an art gallery and a pool — two guest cabins and 2 miles of river frontage. 

“​​The buildings feature beautiful wood and river rock blend with the stunning natural surroundings, and large windows,” says the listing, which is held by Alan DeVries of Cascade Hasson Sotheby’s International Realty in cooperation with Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions. “Whether your dream is to have the ultimate retreat or subdivide parcels, this property has multiple visions and is the perfect sanctuary for anyone looking to create a legacy for years to come.”
