Beautiful views and privacy top the list for this charming cabin style home on 81.4+/- acres! There are several non-operational old gold mines on the property including the Scioc and the Green Mountain mine, as well as the remains of a historic gold mill. In addition to the main home, there is a small mining cabin, 39x40 metal quonset hut shop, and a converted garage. The home is 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, with charming custom woodwork, handmade doors and a cozy fireplace in the living room. It has a covered front deck which overlooks Quartz Valley and the Marble Mountains for beautiful mountain views in every season. The garage was converted into a multipurpose finished space, with an extra room upstairs, currently used for guests. The small mining cabin (from the 1930's) has had the exterior updated and repaired, but the interior is unfinished and will need to be redone in order to make it livable. The metal shop is 37x40, built in 2016, 30' of metal storage racks, has power, plenty of room for equipment or a car enthusiast - great for a variety of uses. Much of the land is level to gently sloping, forested with oaks and pines which have been thinned. The property is partially fenced but would need further fencing for horses or other livestock. There is a spring fed pond on the edge of the property, a nice feature for bringing deer and wildlife into the area.
This area is at the foot of the Marble Mountain Wilderness in the Klamath National Forest. It's a fantastic area for those of love the outdoors, hiking, hunting, horseback riding, trout fishing and more. The four seasons climate offers blazing fall colors in the oak forests, snowcapped mountain views for part of the year, beautiful spring greens and a summer climate that makes it easy to grow a garden. The small towns of Etna and Fort Jones are both less than 20 minutes away and the county seat of Yreka, under a half hours drive. There are ski parks at Mt. Shasta and Mt. Ashland, popular for winter sports enjoyment.
