*Please no access to property or parcel without appointment.* Private retreat on over five peaceful acres just off Corbett Canyon Road on scenic Deer Canyon Road, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, income potential with guest units, creekside charm and natural beauty. Formerly home to thriving orchards, the land is now dotted with mature fruit trees and crowned by nature, creating a tranquil and secluded atmosphere ideal for classic country living. A private driveway leads you to the main residence, which has been updated and remodeled nearly throughout. Features include a fireplace, welcoming stairway, kitchen island, and generous upstairs area for recreation. The main home includes four bedrooms, two ¾ baths, and a separate 2-bedroom living space with its own entrance and bath—perfect for extended family, guests, or rental use. Uniquely, the upstairs level of main home can be easily accessed from an upper level of the driveway. In addition, there is a detached 1-bedroom guest unit (576 SF per County of SLO )offering even more flexibility for short- or long-term stays. Currently operating partially as a vacation rental, this property is ready for both full-time living and investment income. A charming footbridge over a seasonal creek adds storybook appeal to the grounds, and a shared well supports both the main and guest units. Additional highlights include a garage, 4 sheds, and the peace of a private road, ideal for those seeking a quiet, rural lifestyle just minutes from town. The solar system serving the property is 7.2kW. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a private compound in the heart of the Central Coast—whether you're looking to settle in, invest, or simply enjoy the peace of country living.
