The story
- Waterfront
Tucked into the mountains of Northern California's Scott Valley, this remarkable 23-acre retreat captures peace and natural beauty that is increasingly rare. The setting is both grounding and inspiring--where fresh mountain air, star-filled skies, and the gentle rhythm of nature shape everyday life. While fully off-grid, the property is thoughtfully equipped with modern amenities that support comfortable, everyday living without sacrificing sense of seclusion and self-sufficiency. Thoughtfully designed with flexibility, individuality, and a touch of whimsy, the property features a collection of unique living spaces and outbuildings, each with its own distinct character. Warm wood interiors, wood-burning stoves, expansive opening window doors, and locally sourced incense cedar siding create a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. Unexpected details--like a hidden room tucked behind a closet--add charm, personality, and a sense of wonder. A riverside pavilion offers a peaceful gathering space overlooking the water, perfect for quiet mornings, outdoor dining, or evenings spent listening to the river. Located in the beloved town of Callahan, the area is known for its scenic mountain landscapes, four-season beauty, mild summers, and endless opportunities for hiking, fishing, horseback riding, and exploration. Whether envisioned as a private retreat, homestead, artistic sanctuary, or legacy property, this is a place where tranquility, whimsy, modern comfort, and a deep connection to the land come together in a truly unforgettable setting--a perfect full-time residence or part time escape. The kitchen was designed with a future radiant heating system in mind, including an in-floor network of piping already in place.
