Located on the Placerville side of the Mosquito bridge, this home feels like a cabin. Imagine sitting on your secluded deck enjoying the sound of Creek nearby or sitting in your living room watching the water flow in the creek.Located on a year round creek, the house has amazing forest views and a water fall that lulls you to sleep at night. Flowers abound. The property has a new well and water rights with infrared system to clean the water. 3 bedrooms (1 on the main floor) and 2 full baths plus lots of exposed beams and wood. The home needs TLC and an update to baths and kitchen. Steel roof and high efficiency mini-splits (heat/air) are just a few years old. Barn and pastures are in good shape. Room to park a big 6+ horse rig by the barn with circular drive. This tucked away gem is just 8-10 minutes from Main Street in Placerville but feels like you're in Tahoe. This home is tucked in the trees over the creek

LA-10
Limited Agricultural Zone
The LA, Limited Agricultural Zone, applies to the development of agricultural enterprises and uses, whether encumbered by a farmland conservation contract or not. This zone shall be utilized to identify those lands most capable of supporting horticulture, aquaculture, ranching, and grazing, based on existing use, soil type, water availability, topography, and similar factors. The LA zone is distinguished from the PA zone in that it provides limited opportunities for ranch marketing and commercial winery uses, and shall generally be applied where those more intensive commercial uses may be undesirable. Minimum lot size designators shall be applied to this zone based on commodity type, soil type, surrounding uses, and other appropriate factors. The designator shall represent the number of acres and shall be in the following increments: 10, 20, 40, 80, and 160.
