Some properties are simply lived in. This one has been loved. Every detail tells the story of an owner who cared deeply and it shows the moment you pull up. Tucked just 10 minutes from the charm of Nevada City, this custom handcrafted home sits in a world of its own: peaceful, private, and wrapped in the kind of natural beauty that makes you exhale the second you arrive. The 8 acres looks and feels like a national park, and has been very well maintained. Three bedrooms, vaulted ceilings, a custom crafted Yuba Stone fireplace, sweeping porches and patios, plus a dedicated office give you space to spread out, work, create, or simply disappear. Inside, custom lighting warms the vaulted ceilings, sunken living and media rooms invite you to settle in and stay a while, and a sweet screened-in porch dining room off the kitchen blurs the line between indoors and out the best kind of blur. When evening comes, gather around the outdoor fire pit, swing on the porch, and let the stars do the talking, or claim your spot on the covered back deck and let the quiet wash over you. Several powered outbuildings round out a property that's as functional as it is magical. This is the one people describe when they say you'll know it when you see it. Family compound, vacation escape, full-time sanctuary, creative refuge whatever you're searching for, it's waiting here.
