The story
Welcome to 27655 Wildcat Road, a rare off-grid homestead on 40 very private acres in the pine country of Shingletown, California. This 2020 manufactured home sits on a permanent foundation and offers two bedrooms and one bathroom, thoughtfully set for quiet, self-reliant living far from the grid. Power comes from solar panels with generator backup. A private well and septic system supply water and waste service, so there are no utility bills and no dependence on municipal hookups. A 2,500-gallon storage tank holds well water on site, adding capacity for household use, irrigation, and everyday homestead needs. Multiple storage containers and outbuildings give you ready space for tools, equipment, supplies, and seasonal gear without starting from scratch. The land is the real draw. Forty secluded acres give you room to garden, raise livestock, plant an orchard, keep bees, or simply leave most of the parcel wild. Native vegetation, open skies, and a sense of distance from neighbors create the kind of privacy that is increasingly hard to find, with space enough for further outbuildings, a workshop, or future homestead projects as your plans grow. Despite the seclusion, everyday needs are within reach. Shingletown sits along Highway 44, about 30 miles and roughly 40 minutes from Redding, with its groceries, healthcare, and services. Lassen Volcanic National Park and surrounding national forest land are nearby for hiking, fishing, and seasonal recreation, while the local community offers a quieter base when you want a shorter trip. This is a place for someone who wants land, storage, low overhead, and the freedom to build a self-sufficient life, without being fully cut off from town.
