Tucked away at the end of a quiet country lane, this beautifully updated 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom farmhouse offers rare privacy, serenity, and room to breathe on two parcels totaling just over 5 acres. Surrounded by peaceful hillside views, the property delivers space and flexibility perfect for adding a barn, shop, pastures, or expanding your homestead vision while still enjoying a move-in-ready home. Inside, the home blends modern updates with timeless farmhouse charm. Hardwood floors, wainscoting, vaulted ceilings, and a cozy wood-burning stove create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The fully remodeled kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, stainless appliances, and a functional dining island that anchors the space. Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated with quartz vanities, brick-look tile flooring, oil-rubbed bronze fixtures, and stylish finishes throughout. The primary suite feels like a retreat with a subway-tile walk-in rain shower, clawfoot soaking tub, and elegant detailing. An additional bedroom with a separate exterior entry adds flexibility for guests, extended family, or a private workspace. Step outside and soak in the tranquility while sitting under the covered front porch or pergola-topped deck or enjoying the fully fenced front and back yard areas. Additional features include a wood shed, metal roof, and under-house storage. With no HOA, no Mello Roos, public water, and true end-of-road seclusion, this property offers freedom and a quiet lifestyle. Located in Placerville, a charming Sierra Nevada foothill town known for its Gold Rush history, vibrant community events, outdoor recreation, wine country access, and easy reach to Tahoe, Sacramento, and the Bay Area, this home is perfectly positioned for both everyday living and weekend adventure.
