A Rare Mountain Retreat for Nature Lovers! Tucked away on 1.87 private acres just five minutes from downtown Nevada City, this charming chalet style home overlooks a peaceful pond where wood ducks raise their young. The spacious great room features vaulted ceilings and abundant windows that fill the home with natural light and beautifully bring the outdoors in. A large wraparound deck provides the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying the surrounding woods and abundant wildlife. The 2,344 sq. ft. home features a main-level primary bedroom and living areas, two large, loft-level bedrooms with an adjoining bath, plus approximately 490 sq. ft. of lower-level space with a full bath and private entrance, ideal for an office, guest area, or in-law quarters. Across the pond, a detached cabin offers a special retreat for a home office or art studio. Plenty of outdoor space provides room for a garden and chicken coop, while multiple storage, utility, and workshop buildings accommodate toys, hobbies, and projects. Adjacent to scenic NID Canal trails, this special neighborhood offers natural gas, public water, and Xfinity high-speed internet. Private, peaceful, and truly special.
