This stunning, buildable, 2.8-acre parcel located among the Sierra Nevada foothills in North San Juan is a nature lover's dream. Year-round wildflowers dot the landscape in a stunning array of colors & patterns, creating a peaceful and serene environment. The ready-to-build land features a permitted 2015 standard septic, 200A power, 2013 permitted 200' 60gpm well, and a 2500g water tank with gravity-fed lines. A 20x40 permitted garage/studio foundation was poured in 2017 and the driveway encroachment/permit was completed in 2012. A hand-built, dry stack Ridge Rock wall offers lovely visual appeal and functional retention. Established soil yields wild berries and fertile raised vegetable beds, allowing you to grow & enjoy fresh produce right at home! A compacted cultivation area where an engineered greenhouse once stood now offers an excellent area from which to springboard your build. The local area is renowned for world-class trails, access to the Yuba River, and opportunities for swimming, hiking, fishing, and kayaking. Relax at the nearby luxurious Sierra Hot Springs or head to Bullards Bar for boating & camping. There is even a nearby health foods store and community center, plus the local fire station is just down the road (a bonus for insurance!). Your dream awaits...
