About this home
Step back in time and discover this remarkable 28.93-acre historic hilltop property in Nevada County, offering privacy, sunshine, rich history, and exceptional potential. Situated at approximately 3,600 feet elevation, this mostly level ridge-top acreage was once a productive apple farm dating back to the late 1800s and remains dotted with mature apple and black walnut trees, remnants of its agricultural past. The property features two late-1800s miners' cabins, along with several old outbuildings, all ready for restoration by someone with vision and appreciation for historic character. Whether you're looking to create a private mountain retreat, hobby farm, recreational getaway, or legacy property, this land offers a rare opportunity to bring a piece of California history back to life. One of the property's most valuable features is its historic deeded water rights from a large pond located on adjacent U.S. Forest Service land. A newer well pump is already installed, and portions of the property have previously been opened up to create sunny, south-facing building areas with abundant usable land. The mostly level terrain offers excellent sun exposure, towering pine forests, and beautiful ridge-top views, creating an ideal setting for those seeking peace, privacy, and room to explore. Convenient access is provided by a well-maintained gravel road from the historic town of Dutch Flat, with two large reservoirs just a few miles away for boating, fishing, hiking, and year-round outdoor recreation. With approximately 1,260,191 square feet of mostly usable land, abundant sunshine, mature orchard trees, historic improvements, and incredible natural beauty, the possibilities are endless. Seller financing is available, making this an exceptional opportunity to own a truly unique piece of Nevada County. Properties offering this combination of history, usable acreage, water rights, privacy, and restoration potential rarely come to market. Bring your tools, your vision, and your dreams to restore this extraordinary mountain homestead and write its next chapter....
