For cloud-covered winter days, a high-quality cast iron wood stove adds sufficient heat to both levels due to the open design, including an opening to the upper level immediately above the wood stove. Brand new stainless steel kitchen appliances were installed in March of 2025. There's even a built-in laundry chute from the upper level to the laundry room...what a dream! The home is surrounded by 35 acres of rolling hills and trees affording both quiet and frequent visits by deer, quail, rabbits, turkeys, and multiple bird species. Yosemite National Park is only an hour away. Town and schools can be reached within 15 minutes. The home is water-efficient by design. In addition to an excellent well (100 gallons per minute at drilling), the home is plumbed for greywater. The greywater is permitted and available for irrigating trees. The home is fire-hardened and passed all CalFire inspections. The roof is steel. There's also a sprinkler system on a portion of the roof for additional fire protection. A lush lawn covers the south and west exposures, adding fire protection, cooling, beauty, and recreation. A gazebo helps people enjoy the lawn. A 15,000-gallon pool is located above the house, offering a large water source. A gasoline-powered pump with a fire hose and nozzle can tap that resource and easily reach the home.
As you explore the southern property line, you will find a partial historic cattle ranch fence. Mariposa County is rich with history and good people ready to welcome you home.
