10.96 Acres in Squaw Valley, CA - $170,000
Sesame 10 acres
The first picture says it all. This is your opportunity to have your very own mountain. Here is 10 acres in 2 separate adjoining 5 acre lots that are the entire mountain. A drive takes you to the top of the mountain where there is a rough pad, a 30gpm well, a 2br1ba mobile, and the most amazing views you will ever see from the most private setting on the mountain. This may, indeed, be the perfect property.
Why? Well, for starters, from the top of the mountain you have a full 360 degree view. To the north and east you are looking at the snow capped peaks of the High Sierras. To the south and west, you have a panoramic view of the San Joaquin Valley and the Coast Range over 100 miles away. And, since you own the entire mountain, you have complete and total seclusion from the neighbors. This is absolute privacy. At the top, you have over 1 acre of nearly flat area to build on.

Why? Well, for starters, from the top of the mountain you have a full 360 degree view. To the north and east you are looking at the snow capped peaks of the High Sierras. To the south and west, you have a panoramic view of the San Joaquin Valley and the Coast Range over 100 miles away. And, since you own the entire mountain, you have complete and total seclusion from the neighbors. This is absolute privacy. At the top, you have over 1 acre of nearly flat area to build on. And since this is 2 legal parcels, you can build two homes. Another interesting fact about this property. Most view properties have notoriously deep and low production wells. This property has extensive pockets of quartz rock on it and quartz is always a good water sign. The well on this property produces 30gpm and hit 16 veins of quartz during drilling with water flowing in 4 of those fractures. Truly an excellent well. In addition to the mountain top you also have some nice ground at the rear of the property which could be used for pasture or garden areas. A separate drive comes off of the main drive to access this back portion of the property. Power is available at the road frontage of the property.
This mountain top location gets nice breezes and elevation is at the 3,350 foot level so you will enjoy cooler temps in the summer and can expect an occasional snowfall in the winter (4-6 inches is not uncommon).
The mobile is a 2br1ba cabin trailer with bedrooms at both ends and a living area in the middle. It is in very decent condition and has a 20 foot enclosed addition in front to provide a rough kitchen area. It isn't fancy but it is in good condition and it provides a nice go to place until you build your residence.
As always, I talk about any negatives. There are a couple. The driveway up to the home is pretty rough and needs some work. The mobile home, while a nice feature, has not been permitted. The seller will provide a Bill of Sale on closing. The mobile is setup and usable for sleeping and staying in but does not have electricity or septic. A septic system will still be required to be installed and either solar or grid is needed for electric. The property location is at the far eastern end of Squaw Valley, so commute time to the valley will be a bit longer but still well within an hour.
This is truly a diamond in the rough. It is an amazing blank canvas for one of the premier properties on the mountain. It has unparalleled privacy and seclusion and it has drop dead gorgeous world class views in every direction. It has a spectacular place to build and an outstanding well already in place. In short, these two lots just may be the perfect property. The seller is willing to consider carrying paper with an acceptable down payment. Just a final note: Unique, one-of-a-kind properties don't grow on trees. This is absolutely one of those properties. But, the pictures don't do full justice to it. This is one you have to see to appreciate. So, if you are a qualified buyer able to meet the price, schedule a visit. Be prepared to be impressed.
