39 glorious acres on Big Canyon Creek is your canvas! With a quality-built, cozy one-bedroom, one-bath home including laundry room and open kitchen/ living room area, this turnkey home base is only the beginning. A separate structure houses a sauna and jacuzzi tub, with the potential to be turned into a guest house, office space, home gym or studio. There's also a large detached two car garage with plenty of room for storage and extra paved parking pads. Don't overlook the custom private observatory! This unique find has all the makings of a fabulous getaway retreat. You can make it your own personal nature sanctuary or invite friends and family to bring their RVs and create a luxury "glamping" compound. With the included Generac, you'll be covered in case of power outages. The land itself is magnificent, a mix of hillside and pastures, abundant with springs and flowing creeks, gorgeous vistas, access roads, and trails to explore the native flora and fauna of this special slice of Lake County. At night the starry skies will delight you, and the melody of the running water will gently soothe you into a peaceful sleep. Come see how sweet and natural life could be!
