This property was developed by the founders of Home Power magazine and was designed to be a model for off-grid and self-sustainable living. The 1,300 s/f two bedroom house sits on 40 acres just north of the California border in Agate Flat with views of Mt. Shasta and lying within the Cascade Siskiyou National Monument and Soda Creek Wilderness areas, meaning there is no public vehicular access into the area. An extensive solar array and battery bank powers the property and is backed up with generators, the main one being propane powered, though they are rarely needed. Despite being miles from civilization there is cell reception and internet and, if so desired, a Starlink type setup could keep one quickly and easily connected to the world. The house is served by a well with a 6 GPM pump that fills a 2,500 gallon holding tank and gravity feeds into the home, greenhouse and surrounding yard areas. There are a number of outbuildings on the land that include a tool shed, a sleeper shed and a greenhouse. The greenhouse has a small gardening area but also includes a shower and bath, sink and wash area, and also houses the composting toilet. A large fenced garden area provides an ample amount of room for the growing of fruits and vegetables.
The terrain of the land is flat to gently sloped and can easily be walked and enjoyed. Skookum Creek flows through the middle of the property seasonally and the mix of meadows, creek bed, oak and pine trees, chaparral and surrounding hills and mountains all add to the beauty that is here year-round. The uniqueness, privacy, and ability to live sustainably make this an incredible opportunity to create a lifestyle that is quickly becoming more rare in today's fast paced world.
