OFF GRID DONE RIGHT! Maximum R value construction, a massive solar system for water and electric, and LED lighting make energy management a relaxed affair. Railings on big old growth RW decks work great for drying clothes, and an impressive wood stove custom built in a Ft Bragg shipyard with plenty of firewood around, good soil for growing food, and an ELECTRIC VEHICLE charging station in the barn equals self sufficiency.
In the heart of a world class recreation area; 45 min. to slopes, 20 min. to the Yuba River, 5 minutes to miles of bike trails, this gorgeous estate is only 15 min. from Nevada city, famous for many cultural and artistic events and activities. Current zoning around this property is 30 acre min. parcel size ; totally private, yet only 6 minutes from state highway 20. The 2 acre front yard, with 36 sprinklers on 30 foot centers, two greenhouses with drip systems and orchard, is a joy to behold.
Nevada city is famous for many cultural and outdoor activities , great farmers markets, music, art and especially for the people of this area who are distinguished by a great sense of community, expertise and energy to deal with problems which many communities fail to deal with effectively. This is old gold mining country and the people still retain a measure of the self sufficiency once required to live here. An important institution here is the the community radio KVMR, 89.5 FM. Great food
