Six acres six minutes from downtown Murphys. Secluded and private with impressive views from home and deck. Big open floor plan, 2 bedrooms + big closets + 2 baths, above huge double garage. Lots of usable land around home, fenced + gated, landscaping wants revitalizing. Then varied terrain down to more land for horses, crops or your dream project once cleared. Rare chance to live out in the country amid nature's sounds yet so close to quaint Gold Rush town of Murphys, wineries and shops.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
