440 ACRES. A PRIVATE LAKE. ENDLESS TRAILS. A LEGACY ALL ITS OWN. There are properties, and then there are places that take your breath away. Tucked into the breathtaking foothills of Garden Valley, this extraordinary 440-acre estate is a rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Northern California wilderness, where history, natural beauty, and endless possibilities come together. A world unto itself, the property unfolds across six separate parcels, revealing a landscape of towering trees, winding streams, cascading waterfalls, and a private lake estimated to encompass at least one acre. Miles of spacious, winding fire roads traverse the acreage, creating an incredible network of access throughout the property and offering an exceptional setting for horseback riding, hiking, hunting, exploring, and enjoying the freedom of wide-open spaces. At the heart of this remarkable setting sits a rustic residence rich in character and old-world charm. Approximately 2,006 square feet, with 3-4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the home is recorded as built in 1933 and offers the warmth and personality that simply cannot be replicated. Surrounding the home, established gardens, a historic barn, and numerous additional outbuildings tell the story of a property with a history as distinctive as its landscape. Completely off-grid, this extraordinary retreat offers a level of privacy, independence, and connection to the natural world that is increasingly difficult to find. Whether envisioned as an exceptional private ranch, a destination hunting lodge, an equestrian retreat, a recreational compound, or a multi-generational legacy property, the possibilities are as expansive as the acreage itself. Imagine mornings beside the water, afternoons exploring miles of trails on horseback, the sound of running streams, and evenings surrounded by the quiet beauty of your own private wilderness. Opportunities to acquire a property of this scale, natural diversity, history, and character are exceptionally rare. Six parcels totaling 440+ acres. One extraordinary opportunity to own something that cannot be recreated. This isn't simply a property. It's a legacy waiting for its next chapter.
