Property Description
Bring your plans and imagination to this 1.5-acre North San Juan property, offering a great opportunity to create your own foothill home. Comprised of two parcels, the property features a beautiful mix of mature oaks and pines with open, usable areas and an established driveway already in place. Unlike starting with completely raw land, much of the basic infrastructure is already here. The property is served by community water at approximately $600 per year, an electrical meter on site, and an existing septic system. Propane has previously been utilized, although there is currently no propane tank on the property. Buyers should investigate the condition, capacity and availability of all utilities and systems to their satisfaction. There is also an established fenced garden area ready for someone with a green thumb, along with two outbuildings/sheds providing additional storage. With plenty of trees, usable outdoor space and existing improvements, there is already a good foundation for creating a country property of your own. An existing manufactured home remains on the property but is in disrepair and is being conveyed in its present condition with no value attributed. For the right buyer, the real opportunity is in the landtwo parcels totaling approximately 1.5 acres with water, electrical meter, septic and existing improvements already in place, potentially providing a valuable head start toward building a new home. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Sierra foothills and located in the North San Juan community, this could be a great opportunity for someone looking for a building project, foothill retreat, or simply a place to create something entirely their own.
