15 Ranch Court

Description

This is a well-cared-for two-story, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths home across 1,936 square feet, with a loft area offering the potential for a 4th bedroom or home office. Two separate living rooms give this house real flexibility, both pre-wired for surround sound. Updated throughout with a layout that works well for real daily life. Recent work includes new kitchen and flooring, baseboards and trim, and fresh paint. The upstairs is where that north-facing view really opens up, snow-capped peaks sitting out there on the horizon. The big stuff is already handled. Metal roof. A custom 17KW whole-house backup generator, propane-fed with an automatic transfer switch, keeps the lights on no matter what. HVAC was recently serviced. The well is great. A full closed-circuit security system with a dedicated data closet adds peace of mind. Home inspection on file shows how well maintained this property is. The land is the foundation. Absolutely private, open, sunny, and genuinely usable. A fenced garden area is already in place, ready for whatever you want to grow this season and every season after. The orchard here is truly special mature 15+ year Japanese plum, Fuji apple, and Granny Smith apple trees, plus a rare collection of heirloom varieties sourced from the Felix Gillet Institute in North San Juan, including Scarlet Stayman, Calville Blanc, and Canada Reinette apples, Foxy Lady and Bigelow cherries, Doyenne Gris pears, Hooties Purple plums, Sierraville Sweet Gem cherry, and Camptonville Candy pear, along with Sweet Treat pluerry, Late Santa Rosa plum, Harkow nectarine, Polly peach, Hosui Asian pear, Bartlett pear, and Fuyu persimmon. Multiple outbuildings give you room for equipment, animals, projects, and the kind of organized storage that makes rural life work the way it should. The Yuba River is 10 minutes away. North San Juan is 15. Bullards Bar Reservoir is 20. Nevada City is 40. Some of the best swimming holes in Northern California become part of your regular weekly routine when you live out here. You are not near nature. You are in it. Pike is a small community with good neighbors and real quiet.
