Local Intelligence ## Real estate in Murphy, from someone who works here Murphy is the answer for a lot of buyers who say they want 'country, but close.' Tucked just southwest of Grants Pass along Murphy Creek Road and North Murphy Road, this small unincorporated community is made up of fenced pastures, ranchettes, and single-level homes set well back from the highway noise. Properties here skew toward one to ten acres — horse setups, garden plots, and room for shops and barns — with many homes enjoying broad views toward the Applegate foothills. Because inventory is thin and lots vary wildly in usability, local knowledge matters more in Murphy than almost anywhere in the valley. Matt regularly works Murphy Creek Road and the surrounding loops. He can walk you through well production, septic realities, slope and sun exposure, and what similar acreage has actually closed for — before you fall in love with the wrong parcel. ### Murphy at a glance County Josephine County Character Rural ranchettes · Ag residential Drive to Grants Pass ≈ 12–15 minutes Lot sizes Typically 1–10 acres [Ask Matt About Murphy](tel:+15419155401)[Get a Murphy Home Valuation](https://mattweaver.leftcoastlocal.com/home-valuation/) Where Matt Works ## Streets & areas Matt serves in Murphy Murphy Creek Road North Murphy Road Applegate foothill properties Holland loop & neighboring acreage Three Rivers School area Fish Hatchery Road fringe The Lifestyle ## Why people choose Murphy Room for animals, gardens, shops, and barns without leaving the valley Dark, quiet nights and real elbow room between neighbors Quick run into Grants Pass for groceries, schools, and services Easy access to the Applegate Valley wine route on weekends How Matt Helps ## Buying or selling in Murphy?
