Description

Where the mountains meet the river your Sierra Nevada dream awaits. Perched above the valley with jaw-dropping ridgeline views and the kind of mountain privacy that makes you exhale the moment you arrive, this nearly 8-acre parcel near Nevada City is one of those rare finds that checks every box before you've even broken ground. The land itself tells a story of thoughtful preparation. A high-producing well is already in. Septic is permitted and in place. A building pad has been cleared and is ready for your vision, and a driveway has been cut and is waiting for pavement or gravel, your call. Even a conceptual design comes with the property, a digital vision of the dream the current owners had to set aside when life took a different turn. Their change of plans is your rare opportunity. Tucked into a secluded setting that still feels like a true neighborhood surrounded by wonderful, like-minded landowners, this parcel sits above snow level and close to the South Yuba River corridor. You're minutes from the charm and culture of historic Nevada City, yet far enough away to truly unplug. Whether you're envisioning a full-time legacy home or a private Sierra retreat, the lifestyle here is second to none. An off-grid solar system was used by a large travel trailer, giving the property self-sufficient potential. This is the kind of land that doesn't need imagination to sell itself. Stand at the building pad, take in that view, and you'll already be planning the parties you will have in your beautiful new home. Properties like this don't sit. Come see it before someone else calls it home!
