Property Description
Nestled in the forested hills above De Sabla, 15989 Katydid Ln offers a rare opportunity to own a true mountain homestead on over 40 acres with expansive views and direct access to surrounding timberland. Bordering both US Forest Service land and Sierra Pacific Industries land, this property provides a private, peaceful setting with panoramic forest views, along with sunrise and sunset vistas from the elevated homesite overlooking the Butte Creek canyon and valley beyond. The home features a spacious layout with two separate living areas, ideal for flexible living. The main level includes a primary suite downstairs, while an additional upstairs primary suite offers elevated views of the surrounding forest and ridgelines. Large windows throughout the home bring in natural light and showcase the natural beauty of the property from nearly every room. There is an attached garage and a large detached shop, along with a generous laydown area/wood yard offering ample space for equipment, storage, or contractor-type use. The home features two wood-burning fireplaces, with an additional fireplace located in the detached shop, adding to the functional and rustic appeal. Designed for those seeking a rural lifestyle, the acreage provides ample space for animals, gardening, and other homestead uses, with multiple potential lookout points and areas to explore. The setting offers a balance of seclusion and accessibility, located approximately 15 minutes to local grocery and services and about 20 minutes to Paradise. Outdoor recreation is a major highlight of this location, with nearby access to Paradise Lake, Butte Creek, and The Forks of the Butte Recreation Area, including trailheads leading out to Doe Mill Ridge for hiking, biking, and off-road exploration. The historic flume system also offers additional opportunities for walking and exploring. The surrounding region is well known for fishing, hunting, hiking, and year-round outdoor recreation. This property presents a unique opportunity to enjoy a private mountain setting with direct access to nature, while still remaining within a reasonable distance to everyday conveniences.
