2 Beds | 1 Full Baths | 1,000 SqFt | 21.7 Acres

Mountain hideaway, oasis on 21 acres above Nevada City. Cabin will need substantial upgrades and will not qualify for conventional lender requirements. This is a cash only sale, with no owner carry. This homestead is two ten acre parcels that are sold together, but can be separated by the new owner or owners. There are 3 freshwater springs, collectively known historically, as Buckeye Spring, that water the land and provide for drinking and irrigation. Used by native people as a water source for millennia, the land and homesite were a famous stop on the old and wagon train route to the gold fields. The main spring has two large ponds that support life on this land along with fruit trees, wildflowers, gardens, and an ancient forest! Large level & sunny landing area that can be developed with new home or camping. Plenty of room for RV, horses, tiny homes, or yurts. Septic is hand dug and does not meet current county requirements. There is no well; home currently is plumbed with water directly from Buckeye Springs. Do not try and use GPS to locate this home, you will get misdirected. No drive-by viewing. You cannot see anything from the street. High clearance vehicle required on Buckeye Road!
