Ten acres of Sierra foothill land on a well-maintained gravel road just minutes from Penn Valley and the South Yuba River, with power adjacent, and a cleared, level turnout already in place at the road. This is a 10 acre residential parcel in western Nevada County, a few minutes from the South Yuba River country quiet. Its roughly 25 minutes from the shops, restaurants, and hospital in Grass Valley and Nevada City. The land itself is flat at the roadside where a turnout has already been cleared, then rolls up into wooded hillside. That cleared front area is the natural building site the front half of the parcel is where you'll want to build and a footpath leads from the turnout to additional spots that could be opened up with some brush clearing and leveling. Climb a little higher and the main payoff shows itself: the parcel sits with valleys on both sides, so a well-placed home has real view potential. Bridgeport and the South Yuba River State Park (swimming holes, the historic covered bridge, hiking) are a few minutes down the road. Englebright Lake and Lake Wildwood are close for boating and fishing. Penn Valley handles groceries and fuel about 10-15 minutes away.
