Encircled by majestic oak trees, this unique custom-built home sits on 1.4 acres of flat, usable land. The wall of windows at the front of the house overlooks the culinary herb garden, several flower beds, the orchard, and a field of wildflowers. Designated a farm'' by the USDA, there is a 30'x 40' deer-fenced permaculture garden that can easily be expanded. The house is built around a courtyard, perfect for celebrations or just relaxing, and beyond the courtyard, is a lighted labyrinth. The current owners built a quaint 9'x12' barn using live-end oak and upcycled wood which they refer to as the "chicken palace"(also suitable for goats). Behind the main house is a 12'x 54' structure with one finished-out room currently used as a guest room/office. The remainder of the structure could potentially be finished as an ADU, 2 extra bedrooms, a mother-in-law, a yoga studio, etc. The property is completely fenced and has a convenient solar-powered electric entry gate. Located on a private lane less than a mile away from a hardware store, 2 plant nurseries, & a post office. Minutes away from shopping & nightlife of Grass Valley and Nevada City.
