Property Description
The world's getting louder and then there's Cottonwood Creek Farmhouse. Here, off-grid energy meets on-grid elegance. Vintage bones with a new foundation, new roof, new baths, new electrical, and a modern mechanical package (including an instant hot-water system) bring 1890s charm into the present. Set on 1.13 private, creekside acres, this reimagined retreat is bordered by a year-round stream. Inside, whitewashed interiors, wide-plank floors, and artisan tile shine thanks to a full foundation-to-roof renovation that preserved history while elevating the essentials. An attached private-entry suite with its own kitchen, bath, and high-ceilinged living space is ideal for guests, work, or multigenerational living. Outside, a sun-kissed meadow invites gardening, chickens, or simply slowing down into the rhythm of the Lost Sierra. Boho charm meets modern practicality in one of the region's most peaceful pockets. The property may be rented for periods of 30 days or longer; buyers should verify any rental use or permitting requirements directly with Sierra County Planning.
