Purchase this 4.99 Deeded Acres with a Home, & we'll transfer the adjoining 15 + Acre BLM Gold Mining Claim into your name for Fee (small Transfer Fee, that is). Quiet, secluded location with beautiful, scenic views; well off the beaten path. Water source is a Natural Spring & the constant overflow has kept a small garden flourishing for years after the home was vacated. This modest 1,080 Sq. Ft. home could use a new roof & there is some deferred maintenance that needs attention, but the home could possibly be lived in right now while you work on it, depending upon your standards. There is even a 464 Sq. Ft. Basement that stays comfortably cool even on hot summer days. Small Barn & Storage Shed as well. Former occupant raised 5 kids in this home, then lived here until she was in her 80's. This area is rich in Gold Mining & Lumber Mill History. Due to Conventional Lender's Guidelines, this needs to be a Cash Only Sale.
