This caretaker’s house located at 318342 Highway 2 in Newport has been declared surplus by the Pend Oreille County Parks and Recreation Department and is up for auction. Built in the early 1960s, the home was acquired by the county in the early 2000s from the U.S. Geophysical Observatory site on Indian Creek Road. The public auction is hosted online, and interested buyers can view the listing by visiting publicsurplus.com and searching under Pend Oreille County’s profile. Mike Kirkwood, Director of Pend Oreille County Parks & Recreation, says, “The home has good bones and would make a great starter house for a family.”
