Opportunity knocks! This remarkable 5.63 Acre parcel with Deer Creek running through it has been treasured by the same family for decades. The beloved 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath, 2567 square foot home is now in need of repair, renovation and new dreams so it remains the special, nurturing place it has been. The home's spacious, main floor living areas, dramatic windows, woodsy interiors, open beamed and vaulted ceilings, and a charming brick fireplace delight the eye in the heart of the home. Extensive decking (much of it is covered) expands the living spaces and overlooks Deer Creek and the land. The 5.63 Acre parcel spans both sides of Deer Creek and features magical rock outcroppings, serenity, and privacy within a forest of Pine, Fir, Cedar, Oak and Madrone. The home is tucked down a private lane and enjoys sought-after, end-of-the-road privacy within a peaceful, quiet neighborhood setting. There's a small workshop/storage area within the 2 vehicle Carport and an unfinished Basement. Conveniently located, just a 5-minute drive to the heart of historical downtown Nevada City for dining, shopping, the theater, entertainment, and parade-going. NID Treated Water in use. A Lot Line Adjustment was completed recently.
