Excellent opportunity to own a cute little cabin in the woods in the Sierra. This is DOWNIEVILLE, home to some of the best mountain biking in California. Darling little 1 bedroom and loft cabin is a fixer, and it is perfectly situated on 4 acres on top of the mountain between the town and Highway 49. It has great views of the canyons and town. Private road access to the property makes it very peaceful. Yet, it is a short stroll to downtown and to the mighty Yuba River. This property has the old flume trail was once the pipeline for hydraulic mining back in the Gold Rush. Included is a large garage-type workshop with second room. Utility power, delivered propane gas, public water, and high-speed internet accounts for the amenities. The driveway needs some work, but the road will be redon once PG&E completes the project of undergrounding all power lines in Spring 2026. Downieville is the gateway to the Sierra Buttes with excellent fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, gold panning, swimming and more. Near dozens of lakes and 2 rivers. This is a rear find in Downieville...very rare. Bring your hammer.
