Property Description

Welcome to a truly special property in the desirable Eden Valley area of Colfax, where farmhouse charm, versatility and a park-like setting come together on beautiful acreage. The main home offers approximately 2,100 sq ft with 2 bedrooms plus an office, high ceilings, skylights and abundant windows that fill the home with natural light. At the heart of the home is a spacious open kitchen featuring a large island, generous storage and plenty of room to gather. Adding exceptional value is a separate approximately 1,100 sq ft ADU with its own address, 1042 Dog Bar Road, and separate utilities. Featuring a full kitchen, living area, loft, 1 bedroom and 1.5 baths, the ADU is currently income-producing and offers wonderful flexibility for rental income, multi-generational living, guests or extended family. A standout feature of this property is its three water sources: a private well, 1- miners inch private community irrigation water and a year-round creek meandering through the property. The beautiful grounds create a peaceful, park-like backyard backdrop with mature trees, a greenhouse and plenty of room to garden, relax and enjoy the natural surroundings. Multiple uncovered decks and a covered back patio extend the living space outdoors. Additional highlights include owned solar, tankless water heater, whole-house fan, whole-house speaker system and generator hookup. A detached 2-car garage with workshop and multiple sheds provide abundant space for hobbies, storage and projects. The property is fully fenced with a gated entrance and also offers a full RV hookup with electric, water and sewer. With space to garden, create, entertain and simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings, this unique Eden Valley property offers an incredible combination of country charm, income potential and functional amenities, all with convenient access to Colfax, Auburn, Grass Valley and I-80.
