PRICE REDUCTION OF $35,000! Home to artists, craftsmen, & individuals seeking a serene setting, the unincorporated community of Silverado was once dotted with cabins for weekenders, but now has an established population & consists of a general store, café/restaurant, 2 fire stations, post office & local services needed by residents. Silverado Canyon is quaint & rural, just 15 minutes from East Orange shopping. School children attend distinguished Orange Unified schools. Hiking & biking opportunities abound in the local hills & Cleveland National Forest making living here perfect for outdoors aficionados. This 2 bdrm/2 bath cottage was built for the president of the Blue Light Silver Mine in 1901 when the area was mined for silver in the late 19th century. It is situated on a private road. Not currently in habitable condition, the house is boarded up & can be viewed only as a "drive by" subject to interior inspection upon receipt of an acceptable offer. The home has not been occupied since 1969. No trespassing signs are posted. Water/electric meters & propane tank on site but not connected. No septic. The adjacent structure is part of the sale & has 2 garages with a room above the garage used for storage. Cash offers or seller financing is available.
