Idyllic back to the land opportunity. The land is mostly gentle with multiple choices for a building site. With additional garden sites and some pasture potential, this beautiful 23 acres could be your family mini farm. John Smith Creek runs along a portion of the property providing a cooler area under the canopy of Redwood trees that line the meandering creek bed. A high production well has been drilled and storage is in place. There are some neighboring ranches but for those looking for some privacy and seclusion, this is a must see for the off-grid minded Buyer. There is a large unfinished shop/barn building that could be useful in a Buyers plan while working towards building their dream home.
High on a promontory, this 40+/- acre parcel overlooks Surprise Valley below and further beyond through the Comptche Valley. Marketable Timber is standing on the hillsides and the views could be opened up considerably with some further selective harvesting. The top of the property has been recently logged providing a better vision for potential building envelope development. In addition to the cleared top, an additional south facing building site with potential to have these same far reaching views is available, along with some other benches that traverse the land which would be ideal for some terraced gardening. The coastal influence reaches this area in Comptche which allows for some cooling off at night when the summer hits its peak. You would even be able to see the fog roll into the valley from this lofty perch. There is electricity to this site and a septic on the lower site that was installed by a previous owner. A well respected local well driller has surveyed the land and identified a location to develop a water well. Bring your home plans and explore the potential of this property.
