About this home
I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately... A true Back-to-the-Land home, artistically built and rich with natural materials, history, beauty and simplicity. The quaint cabin in the woods you've been waiting for, offering privacy, solitude and a place for your next adventures to begin. A detached Writer's Cabin awaits your next masterpiece! Enter through a gorgeous stained-glass door into the great room, with open-beam ceilings and walls crafted from cedar rounds. Glowing hardwood floors were reclaimed from historic mining flumes, while many windows came from Victorian homes in Nevada City. The kitchen was remodeled in 2020 with stainless-steel appliances and modern convenience; the updated bath features custom tilework and wainscoting. An open floor plan, cozy wood stove, ground-floor bedroom with wood-paneled walls and a romantic sleeping loft complete the home. The Writer's Cabin has its own porch, sleeping loft, wood stove and reclaimed Victorian windows. Enjoy birdsong from the home's wraparound deck, or explore 5 sunny acres with ample space for gardening and growing your own food, with plenty of water from the excellent well. Solar-powered, off-grid living honors the builder's spirit of independence and self-sufficiency. Chop wood, carry water, although the well has that part covered! The mountains are calling and I must go. Please, no drive-bys....
