Property Description
A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A LEGENDARY MOUNTAIN RETREAT IN THE HEART OF JOHNSVILLE-WHERE ADVENTURE, PRIVACY, AND TIMELESS CHARM COME TOGETHER IN ONE EXTRAORDINARY HOME. Perfect as a full-time residence, vacation escape, or true "cabin bunker," this five-bedroom property offers generous space for the entire family while still feeling warm and inviting. LOCATED RIGHT NEXT TO A WORKING SKI HILL, this is one of the few places in the Lost Sierra where you can step outside and ski just moments from your front door. A peaceful creek runs just across the street-A CREEK-RUN SETTING WITH SERENE NATURAL SURROUNDINGS-while the home is SURROUNDED BY UNTOUCHED STATE LAND, creating a setting that feels completely secluded yet deeply connected to nature. In 2001, the home was thoughtfully remodeled down to the studs, delivering modern confidence without sacrificing character, including A FULL STUDS-DOWN REMODEL WITH NEW SEPTIC AND LEACH FIELD. High-speed internet keeps you connected when needed, making this an ideal blend of remote retreat and functional modern living. Beautiful porches overlook historic Main Street-CHARMING PORCHES OVERLOOKING HISTORIC MAIN STREET-perfect for slow mornings, snowy evenings, and watching life unfold in this iconic mountain town. Adding to its storybook appeal, the home is rumored to have been part of a Smucker's commercial in the early 1900s, a nod to Johnsville's rich past and the timeless presence this property holds. Offered for only the third time since the 1940s, this Lost Sierra gem is more than a home-it's a legacy. Also, the seller is offering a 10k buyers credit for closing costs! Can this property get any better!!!
