Do you have big dreams? Then now is the time to think big! Think about big space, big views and big privacy. Think about this gorgeous ‘Ponderosa style’ custom home with soaring ceilings, rich wood interior with open beams and impressive two story fireplace. With a den, a library, two offices, a loft and a wonderful front porch, there are lots of places to sit and think on this property. Think of a truly private property yet with neighbors just down the road. Think of what you could do with a good barn, big garden area and open fields for the local deer, turkeys and birds. Think of having friends come to stay in the attached caretaker’s apartment. Think of hiking up into your private hills, exploring your own cave. Think of enjoying good water from your spring fed well. Think of dipping your pole into the shady creek that runs across this 76 acre Butte Valley ranch. Think of listening to water tumble down your big rock waterfall as you float in your own peaceful pool or sit in the soothing hot tub under a star studded, big night sky. Think of stories of the old gold mine and stage coach route that ran nearby. Think of how cool it is to be just minutes from Big Lake Oroville's boat launch. This rural Oroville property, is really something to think about.

Agriculture Zone
The purpose of the AG zone is to support, protect, and maintain a viable, long-term agricultural sector in Butte County. Standards for the AG zone maintain the vitality of the agricultural sector by retaining parcel sizes necessary to sustain viable agricultural operations, protecting agricultural practices and activities by minimizing land-use conflicts, and protecting agricultural resources by regulating land uses and development intensities in agricultural areas. Permitted uses include crop cultivation, animal grazing, stock ponds, and agricultural processing. More intensive agricultural activities, such as animal processing, dairies, hog farms, stables, forestry and logging, and mining and oil extraction, are permitted with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. 1 single-family home and one accessory dwelling unit is permitted on each legally established parcel within the AG zone, and residential uses for agricultural employees are permitted as an accessory use within the AG zone. The minimum permitted parcel size in the AG zone ranges from 20 acres to 160 acres. The AG zone implements the Agriculture land use designation in the General Plan.
