Property Description
If this land could talk, it would tell a story dating back to California's Gold Rush era. Set on 60 acres of pristine Sierra Foothill land, this remarkable property offers rolling meadows, mature trees, a year-round pond, and a historic farmhouse believed to have been built in the 1800s. Original timbers and hand-milled wood remain, offering a glimpse into the craftsmanship and history of another time. Overlooking a beautiful open meadow, the farmhouse has been vacant for many years and is in need of significant repair, restoration, or replacementcreating an extraordinary opportunity to reimagine this special setting. Existing improvements include a garage and outbuildings. Utilities include power, well, and septic; condition and functionality are unknown, and Buyer is advised to independently investigate and verify. Building credits may apply; Buyer to verify with the appropriate agencies. Whether restoring a piece of history or creating an entirely new ranch estate, this is a rare opportunity to bring new life to 60 beautiful acres while preserving the character, history, and story of the land.
