ACCESS OFF OF ELK DRIVE-DO NOT PARK ON SHAWS FLAT. This charming cottage close to town and the High School was once a miner's shack and has been added to bit by bit over the years. With one large master bedroom and one small room that has been used as a single bedroom off the master, this is a cozy little place. Hot Water heater is new and they've done repairs as necessary over the years. Plenty of room to build garages or sheds, or park the RV and toys. On a good sized lot on the corner of Shaws Flat Rd and Elk Dr. This property is being sold AS IS. Zoned Sonora.
