Property Description
First time on the market! This passive solar home in the Eden Valley area of Colfax, along the bucolic Placer Hills Road corridor, sits on beautifully maintained acreage with lovely foothill views and exceptional quiet. Live close enough to I-80 for an easy commute, with quick access to dining, shopping, hiking, skiing, rivers, and everything the Sierra has to offer. This comfortable and unique home greets you with a front door that is surrounded by a salvaged redwood portico, acquired from a historic Mendocino storefront. Inside, floor to ceiling and clerestory windows pull natural light into the living space throughout the day, keeping the home bright and naturally temperature-regulated due to the passive solar design. A loft overlooks the living room below, adding flexibility for a sleeping area, studio, or your retreat. The two-bedroom, one-bath layout runs 1291 sq ft , efficient and purposeful.. A large laundry room offers real bonus utility: home office, pantry, mud room or flex space depending on how you live. The home is 2 x 6 construction with two sides featuring clear redwood siding in warm rustic tones. The five acres are thoroughly maintained, open yet private, and take in lovely foothill views. A short walk on your property opens your view up more and captures Peaceful Valley and hilltops beyond. A pathway from the home leads you to your detached, extra deep, 2 car garage with a work bench. This garage has seen many projects over the years. What will yours be? Fujisu mini splits & Jotul woodburning stove. Well and septic reports completed. This well loved property offers plenty of room to grow, breathe, garden, explore, and simply enjoy the quiet. Quick freeway access. Solid bones. A loved home, built with intention.
