I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately... A true Back-to-the-Land home, artistically built and rich with natural materials, history, beauty and simplicity. The quaint cabin in the woods you've been waiting for, offering privacy, solitude and a place for your next adventures to begin. A detached Writer's Cabin awaits your next masterpiece! Enter through a gorgeous stained-glass door into the great room, with open-beam ceilings and walls crafted from cedar rounds. Glowing hardwood floors were reclaimed from historic mining flumes, while many windows came from Victorian homes in Nevada City. The kitchen was remodeled in 2020 with stainless-steel appliances and modern convenience; the updated bath features custom tilework and wainscoting. An open floor plan, cozy wood stove, ground-floor bedroom with wood-paneled walls and a romantic sleeping loft complete the home. The Writer's Cabin has its own porch, sleeping loft, wood stove and reclaimed Victorian windows. Enjoy birdsong from the home's wraparound deck, or explore 5 sunny acres with ample space for gardening and growing your own food, with plenty of water from the excellent well. Solar-powered, off-grid living honors the builder's spirit of independence and self-sufficiency. Chop wood, carry water, although the well has that part covered! The mountains are calling and I must go. Please, no drive-bys.

Private 43.5 Acre End-of-Road Mountain Retreat with Infrastructure in Place Discover 43.5 gated acres at the end of a quiet road offering exceptional privacy, sweeping long range views, and substantial infrastructure already in place for a future estate, homestead, or multi structure retreat. Access is through an electric gate via a private easement, providing both security and seclusion. The land features a beautiful blend of open usable terrain and mature oak and madrone forest, with a seasonal creek winding through the property below. Multiple natural building sites capture expansive ridge views and excellent sun exposure, making the property well suited for a primary residence, guest structures, gardens, or a small private compound. The property is also adjacent to Pine Grove Reservoir, adding to the peaceful natural setting and outdoor recreation nearby. Unlike many raw land parcels, significant groundwork has already been completed. The property includes a permitted well and septic system, established internal access roads, and extensive fencing and cross fencing across the acreage. A 2,500 square foot shop on a concrete foundation provides substantial workspace or storage and is powered by its own dedicated solar system. A second solar system services the existing trailer area, and several 40 foot shipping containers offer additional secure storage or workshop space. The property currently operates with multiple off grid power systems, while grid power is available at the road nearby, offering the flexibility to remain off grid or connect to utility power if desired. For those interested in self sufficiency, the property also features established vegetable gardens, greenhouses with high quality soil, and an outdoor flushing toilet connected to the septic system, along with excellent year round sun exposure ideal for growing. The fenced and cross fenced layout supports animals, small scale agriculture, or an expanding homestead. A rare combination of privacy, usable land, existing infrastructure, water, views, and natural beauty allows the next owner to focus on building their vision rather than starting from scratch. Properties of this scale and readiness rarely come available in such a peaceful end of road setting.
