Classic Log Home River Retreat. Located within the gated Forest River subdivision of South Monterey County, this 41.98± acre property offers a rare combination of usable land, end-of-road privacy, and classic California ranch character. Built in 2010, the 1,431± square foot log home features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a spacious loft overlooking the main living area. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams create an open, inviting atmosphere, while large wood-clad windows bring in natural light and frame the surrounding landscape. A covered porch spanning two sides of the home extends the living space outdoors and captures sweeping views of rolling hills, open meadows, and mature oak trees. Wood-clad sliding glass doors from both the living room and dining area open directly to the front porch, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The land is exceptionally usable, with gentle topography, established roads, and a balanced mix of open pasture and oak woodland. Zoned Permanent Grazing (PG), the property supports agricultural use, livestock, and long-term land stewardship. Multiple potential building sites offer flexibility for expansion or additional improvements, while elevation changes provide both privacy and scenic vistas throughout. Additional features include a solar power system with newly replaced batteries, a private well with a new solar pump system, and a 5,000-gallon water storage tank, supporting a self-sufficient, off-grid lifestyle. The property is also equipped with a conventional septic system, private gated entrance, and abundant wildlife. Ownership within Forest River includes access to 236± acres of private community land along with the Nacimiento River corridor, offering exceptional opportunities for recreation, relaxation, and outdoor enjoyment.
