This charming cottage is perched above a year-round creek among the natural beauty of the Sierra Nevada Foothills. A private location adjacent to Tahoe National Forest and only a 30 minute drive to historic downtown Nevada City. One and a half miles to public access on the middle fork of the Yuba River and less than ten minutes to the boat launch on Bullards Bar Reservoir. The home and property have many recent renovations. Some of the improvements include a new roof and gutters, new covered decks, and new windows and doors. A beautifully landscaped front yard includes an attractive new paver patio. The inside of the home retains a rustic "cabin in the woods" appeal but with modern comforts, including a new gas heater. Refinished wood floors throughout. The spacious living room features a wood burning stove. Lovely eat in kitchen with views of the forest and creek. A large bedroom and a remodeled bathroom. The downstairs with private access has a refurbished bedroom with new floors and an adjacent laundry/utility room. Possibility for this space to be converted to separate unit. Trails meander the property down to a large flat meadow next to the calming waters of the stream. This is a setting of peace and tranquility where a lovely garden and wild nature beautifully co-exist.
