Accepted contingent offer with seller right to cancel with 30 days notice. Surrounded by beautiful redwoods and spruce trees on 6.25 acres of peaceful, natural beauty, this property is perfect for anyone dreaming of a homestead. There's room for animals, a pasture lined with wild blackberry bushes, native elderberry and hazelnut trees, plus 9 mature apple trees that are still going strong; some nearly as old as the home itself. You'll also find around 20 younger fruit trees (just a couple years old) including peaches, cherries, pears, and more. Wander the trails that lead along the river, plant your dream garden in the sunny south-facing spot, and even explore dry farming potential. The main home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus an attached studio with its own kitchen and bathroom.
