Property Description
Imagine sitting on this historic wraparound porch while sipping a mint julep overlooking the Yuba River Valley. This is where Wells Fargo stagecoaches once rumbled through town with the likes of Mark Twain and Simon Furth during the Gold Rush. Set on 2.63 usable acres with sunny, garden friendly spaces, the property features dozens of heritage fruit trees including multiple varieties of plum, pear, apple, persimmon, walnut, and vintage grapes galore. Harvest season will be abundant. A brick lined cellar is ideal for storing your homegrown bounty. The centerpiece of the property is the historic farmhouse built in 1851 during the height of the Gold Rush. Lovingly restored and thoughtfully updated, it blends old world charm with modern comfort. The flexible layout offers two bedrooms downstairs, one currently used as a dressing room-but could easily be a nursery or office, plus three bedrooms upstairs. Both bathrooms were taken down to the studs and rebuilt in keeping with the spirit of the bygone era while enjoying modern plumbing. The kitchen was completely updated while preserving its historic character. A unique feature is the cool pantry, also known as a California Cooler, lower cupboards designed to take advantage of the cool cellar temperatures below, perfect for storing canned goods. Where original floors could not be saved, LVP was installed, while others were refinished to their former glory. New roofing, storm windows, and fresh interior and exterior paint add comfort and longevity. Additional features include a 1,000 gallon water tank, and a seasonal natural spring-fed pond. The bus stop for Grizzly Hill School (TK-8) is just a few houses away. Within easy walking distance is the quaint downtown area of North San Juan with a nursery, gas station, cafe, and community center. Other nearby resources include a library, family resource center, Western Sierra Medical Clinic, and beloved organic grocer Mother Truckers. Outdoor adventure surrounds you! Oregon Creek and the Middle Fork of the Yuba River are 3 miles away, Bullards Bar Reservoir 10 miles, Downieville mountain biking 28 miles, Ananda Village tulip gardens 4 miles, and downtown Nevada City is just 14 scenic miles through the Yuba River canyon. A true base camp for outdoor recreation, homesteading, and a slower, intentional pace of life
