Property Description
Discover a rare almost 10 acre retreat with gentle, valley like land, abundant sun (south and west exposure), and excellent access from Empire Grade Road. The property offers exceptional frontage along San Vicente Creek and sits directly across from the newly established San Vicente Redwoods Preserve, bringing protected open space right to your doorstep.With a strong existing well recently tested at 13 GPM and power available at the street, this is an ideal setting for a thoughtfully designed home, retreat, or sanctuary with solar and other sustainable building features. Price reduction reflects the need for a new (likely engineered) septic system.
