About this home
Welcome to Your Private Retreat in the Heart of Nature. Escape to a place where the birdsongs, breeze, and the local wildlife are your only companions. Nestled in the peaceful foothills of California Valley, this 10-acre ranchette offers sweeping views, privacy, and the kind of deep, restorative quiet that’s hard to find. At the center of the property is a thoughtfully designed 1,377 sq. ft. Energy-Star-rated manufactured home (built in 2005). Featuring a master bedroom, the primary suite at the rear of the home, with its own entrance, covered porch and bathroom, and an adjoining retreat room—ideal for a child’s bedroom, yoga space, creative studio, or gym. The second bedroom toward the front of the home is currently being used as a home office, with a bathroom right off of it. There is also a detached bonus room - attached by a breezeway into the main house, to make into what you want —perfect for remote work, hobbies, privacy, or potentially another bedroom. Step onto the wide covered front porch and take in uninterrupted views of the Carrizo Plain and distant mountains. This is the place for morning coffee, evening sunsets, and stargazing in unmatched stillness. Inside, you’ll find an open-concept living and dining space, a well-appointed kitchen, and a double-sided fireplace that warms both the living room and second bedroom/office. The property spans three parcels. Two make up the main, fenced and landscaped 5-acre homesite, formerly a lavender farm and now filled with fruit trees, raised garden beds, and mature landscaping. The third parcel is just across the quiet road and provides an additional 5 acres of hillside—perfect for hiking, watching wildlife, or simply unplugging. This home was designed with sustainability and simplicity in mind, with solar power, wiring ready for an EV charger, and even an above-ground pool for those warm valley days. Outbuildings include a 40’ storage container, a charming rammed earth root/wine cellar, and a travel trailer with its own solar power and septic—ideal for hobbies, or weekend visitors. Whether you're dreaming of a hobby farm, an off-grid lifestyle, or simply a place to breathe and reconnect with nature, this peaceful ranchette delivers. Wake up to golden light and panoramic views. Fall asleep under a sky full of stars. This is the quiet life you’ve been waiting for. Schedule your private showing today and experience it for yourself.
