About this House

What's unique:Level parcel

171 Smithneck isn’t just a piece of land—it’s the kind of opportunity people regret missing. This nearly one-acre, flat corner parcel (0.96 acres) already has water and power in place, removing two of the biggest hurdles to building. Properties like this ready-to-go, in a location this desirable, don’t sit around for long. Just 35 minutes to Truckee, 50 minutes to Lake Tahoe, and an easy drive to Reno, you get the rare balance of true seclusion without sacrificing access to everything you need. Set at 5,180 feet in Sierra Brooks, just outside Loyalton, this is where people come to slow down—and stay. Surrounded by the Sierra Lakes Basin, with fishing, hiking, and biking right at your fingertips, you’re not just buying land—you’re buying a lifestyle most people only talk about. And with Graeagle and Portola nearby, you’re close to some of the most charming summer destinations in the region. If you’ve been thinking about building, this is your moment. Whether it’s a barn dominium, modular home, or your custom-designed retreat, this property is ready. Bring your horses. Start that garden you’ve always talked about. Create the sanctuary you keep putting off. The Sierra Brooks community makes it even easier—low annual HOA fees ($158), and you’ll have access to a clubhouse, campground, and basketball court. There’s even a fire hydrant at the corner, helping reduce insurance costs—something savvy buyers know matters. This level parcel sits in a Fire Wise community with paved access, offering both safety and peace of mind. You’ll need a septic system, but public water is already available. Privacy, space, and quiet are built in—but you’re still just a short drive from local shops, and only about 45 minutes from Reno if you want big-city convenience. Here’s the reality: properties like this are exactly what people mean when they say they want to “escape the hustle.” The difference is, most people wait too long. Don’t be one of them.

171 Smithneck Rd, Loyalton, CA 96118 is a lot/land. It last sold for the $28,000 asking price on Aug 18, 2026. This property is not currently displayed as for sale or rent on Trulia.
