    What's special

    Full studs-down remodelWarm and invitingFive-bedroom propertyHigh-speed internetCharming porches
    A rare opportunity to own a true mountain sanctuary in historic Johnsville, where privacy, nature, adventure, and modern comfort come together. Surrounded by state land and set across from a peaceful creek, this secluded Lost Sierra retreat is just minutes from Graeagle and year-round amenities. Located beside a working ski hill, outdoor adventure begins right outside your door with skiing, hiking, biking, and endless exploring nearby. The home offers four bedrooms plus a large storage area, creating flexible space for full-time living, vacation use, or hosting guests. Thoughtfully updated with new flooring in two bedrooms, a new stacking washer and dryer, high-speed internet, and a digitally operated kerosene heater controllable from your phone. Originally remodeled down to the studs in 2001, including a new septic system and leach field, the home blends modern reliability with timeless mountain charm. Beautiful porches overlook historic Main Street, offering the perfect place to enjoy snowy evenings, quiet mornings, and the peaceful rhythm of mountain life. Rumored to have appeared in a Smucker’s commercial in the early 1900s, this home carries a unique sense of history and character. Offered for only the third time since the 1940s and currently operating as a short-term rental, this legacy property is a rare chance to own, enjoy, and experience the magic of Johnsville.
