Discover the tranquility of Cohasset with this combined ±4.86-acre property—two lots sold together, offering space, privacy, and a ready-to-build opportunity. Once home to a residence prior to the 2024 Park Fire, the land has since been cleared, thoughtfully thinned of brush and trees, and is now primed for your next chapter. Gently sloping terrain and open sightlines create a strong foundation for your vision—whether that’s a full-time residence, a weekend retreat, or a small hobby farm. A compacted homesite remains in place, and PG & E power is conveniently located underground at the street for easy future development. The previous home was a 2-bedroom, 1-bath structure; buyers are encouraged to investigate the condition of the existing well and septic system to fully understand the property’s potential. Nestled in the peaceful and picturesque community of Cohasset, this parcel offers a rare blend of seclusion and accessibility. Residents enjoy a slower pace of life surrounded by natural beauty, with opportunities for hiking, outdoor recreation, and quiet living. Despite its serene setting, the property is just 25 minutes from Chico, where you’ll find schools, shopping, restaurants, and essential services. An added bonus: an assumable loan of approximately $26,000 with very favorable financing terms is available—giving buyers one more tool to make this property attainable. With room for gardens, animals, a custom home, or a cozy cabin getaway, this land offers endless possibilities for those seeking space, privacy, and a true connection to nature.

Standards for the FR zone are intended to ensure that the development of homes respond sensitively to the foothill setting. Permitted residential uses in the FR zones include a single-family home, small residential care home, and an accessory dwelling unit. The FR zone also conditionally permits non-residential uses compatible with a low-density rural setting, including public and quasi-public uses, mining, animal services, hunting and fishing clubs, nurseries, and commercial stables. Animal grazing, crop cultivation, private stables, on-site agricultural product sales, and other similar agricultural activities are permitted uses in the FR zone.
