The property includes a 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-story residence built in 1926, offering potential for renovation or replacement. Existing site assets include an independent agricultural well, MID irrigation, an in-ground swimming pool, a garden shed, and a four-stall barn with equipment space and tack room. The grounds are enhanced by mature landscaping, including crepe myrtles, fruitless mulberries providing extensive summer shade, and established citrus, fruit, and avocado trees. Zoned AG-2, the property supports agricultural uses (buyer to verify desired use). The expansive, usable acreage lends itself to multi-generational living, agricultural operations, nonprofit or educational uses aligned with agriculture, and potential ADU development to expand residential or program capacity, subject to county approval. Situated currently on a dead-end road, the property offers privacy and open space while remaining close enough to town for daily essentials. The region is experiencing continued infrastructure investment and revitalization, with convenient access for day trips to the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Lake Tahoe, Southern California, the Bay Area, and Monterey Bay. Bring your vision and create. This property is being sold as is.'' Due to the current condition of the residence, this property is available for cash purchase only. Standard, FHA, or VA financing is not suitable for this property's current state.
