    About this House

    Perched above the scenic Bear River, this exceptional 12-acre offering consists of TWO contiguous legal parcels, creating rare flexibility, expanded building potential, and long-term value. With over 1,000 feet of Bear River frontage and historic mineral rights extending to the center of the river, this property offers a unique connection to one of Northern California's well-known gold-bearing waterways. This setup allows for multiple main residences plus additional living spaces such as an ADUs and junior ADUs, making it ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or rental income potential. It also gives the option to develop both parcels together or hold one for future use, offering long-term value and versatility. A well-positioned house pad captures panoramic views of the surrounding landscape and river below, set approximately 200 feet above the water for an ideal balance of scenery and usability. The property previously experienced fire impact, with key infrastructure already in place from prior development, including a well and septic system. This provides a meaningful head start compared to raw land, with established improvements already on site. PG&E power is available, and a propane tank is also in place. The land is in a natural recovery phase, with regrowth and a mix of open space and native forest returning across the property, offering a refreshed setting for future development. Conveniently located approximately 20 minutes from Grass Valley and Auburn, the property offers a desirable combination of natural beauty and accessibility, making it well suited for a full-time residence, second home, or investment opportunity. Vacant land financing is available for qualified buyers. This is a rare opportunity to own a riverfront property with substantial river frontage, historic mineral rights, and exceptional development flexibility along a gold-bearing waterway.

      "i’ve lived in this neighborhood for over 20 years. I was born about an hour from here so this is like coming back home! Everyone is very friendly! since Grass Valley is about 3000 feet in elevation, The snow level is just above us. We might get a few inches of snow every year, but it doesn’t last long. It does get pretty hot in the summertime as high as 105 at times. It’s actually very beautiful! There are many pine trees, cedars, and oaks in our neighborhood! Also gold country is where we live! So if you’d like to try your hand at gold panning try many of our creeks and rivers! Our county has the most beautiful fairgrounds in California! Many things to do in our town!"

      "It’s a quiet neighborhood with mostly Victorian homes. It’s near a high school but that doesn’t seem to affect traffic or the peaceful atmosphere. It’s fairly close to Hwy 49 so there’s a lot of background noise but one gets used to it pretty quickly. There are several nice parks and trails nearby. It’s a decent place to raise a family. It’s also within walking distance to of historic downtown and shopping. "

Great clubhouse, golf course, restaurants, pizza parlor, auto repair, elementary school. Quiet. Absolutely lovely. Herds of deer roam freely everywhere. Only 3 miles to town. But far enough out of town to really enjoy being in the country. Lots of amenities."

      "Grass Valley is great, but something strange in a brewing in the air around here. whatever it is it's not good. But schools are great!! There is a lot of homeless and illicit drug use and I'm not talking marijuana either. At first, I thought the people were nice, but I think that's only in Penn Valley. Grass Valley has many younger/middle-age folk that act like they are in high school and are brutal to new comers. That being said, I have met many kind individuals who have been welcoming."
