Tucked behind a private gate in the peaceful countryside of Placerville, this charming and thoughtfully improved 1-acre retreat offers the kind of quiet country living that is difficult to find. Fully fenced and beautifully usable, the manicured property offers space for RV parking, trailers, gardening, hobby farming, chickens, and other animals, all while maintaining a warm and manageable feel. A large new garden with raised beds, 8-foot deer fencing, irrigation, fruit trees, multiple storage sheds, and a dog kennel further enhance the property's versatility. As you arrive through the gate, the setting immediately feels welcoming and serene, with a picturesque country home, inviting covered porch, and expansive deck overlooking the peaceful grounds. Downstairs, a finished basement area provides ideal space for storage, a future office, workshop, or hobby room, while a separate man-cave/game or exercise room with half bath and private entrance creates the perfect place to unwind, host friends, watch a game or simply enjoy a little separation from the main living areas. Designed for both relaxation and enjoyment, the outdoor spaces are truly special. A beautiful flagstone patio surrounds a tranquil koi pond with new pump, while a flowing man-made creek and
cascading waterfalls fill the property with the soothing sound of gently moving water, creating the perfect backdrop for peaceful evenings under the stars. Inside, the home is filled with warmth, character, and natural light. The bright updated kitchen features newer countertops, refreshed cabinetry, and a new LG refrigerator, while the spacious living room with fireplace flows seamlessly into the dining area and out to the expansive deck through newer energy-efficient doors. Updated lighting, ceiling fans, dimmers, and switches add a fresh modern touch. Two comfortable bedrooms and a cozy, well-appointed bathroom complete the main living space. For gardening and nature enthusiasts, the grounds showcase a beautiful collection of mature trees and plantings including Redwoods, Japanese Maples, Blue Atlas Cedar, Deodara Cedar, Ginkgo, Valley Oak, Black Oak, fruit trees, Hydrangeas, and more. Additional highlights include a brand-new roof and a rare sense of privacy and tranquility throughout. Full of charm both inside and out, this is the ideal retreat for those seeking a peaceful foothill lifestyle with room to slow down and enjoy life.
