Property Description

Welcome to your own slice of Sierra Nevada paradise with this distinctive single-story log home nestled on sixteen park-like acres of mostly level land with long-range views that are some of the best in Nevada County! Step onto the invigorating 800 sq ft view deck, where you and all the hummingbirds are enveloped by a nearly 180-degree panoramic view of the iconic Sierra Buttes. This lovingly cared for and beautifully customized three-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers 2100 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space, with a remodeled kitchen and bathrooms, all-new dual-pane, low-energy windows installed in 2025, and a Corning TruDef Class A roof installed in 2016. But the magic doesn't stop at the main house. Enjoy over 1200 sq ft of a fenced and gated cottage garden to connect with nature. A separate 480 sq ft studio, completely remodeled in 2012, features a full bath, Murphy bed, kitchen, mini-split climate control, and its own private inspiration deck perfect for guests or creative retreats. The 780 sq ft insulated shop building boasts upgraded power, an RV door, and epoxy flooring to keep all your projects flowing. While an engineer-designed tree house offers the most whimsical entertaining space you never knew you needed. Safety meets serenity with a custom fire suppression system installed in 2019, featuring over 8,000 gallons of water storage and sprinklers protecting every structure on the property. Modern conveniences include an upgraded tankless water heater and updated lighting and appliances throughout. Adventure awaits right at your doorstep the beloved Pioneer Trail runs along the entire southern property line, offering twenty-plus miles of hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Scotts Flat Lake beckons for weekend fun, and the historic Nevada City Downtown district sits less than 15 minutes away. Only 1 hour to Sacramento or Lake Tahoe. All inspections completed and available. Your mountain dream home is ready and waiting. We look forward to seeing you soon!
