Welcome to a rare retreat just 7 minutes from downtown Nevada City, where nature, craftsmanship, and comfort converge across 5 artfully landscaped acres. Originally a two-room cabin, this home was remodeled under the vision of acclaimed architect Karin Payson. Once home to author Hyemeyohsts Storm, the land is a place of peace and reflection. The covered porch invites you into an open-concept living space with wide-plank hardwood floors beneath skylit ceilings. Fleetwood windows frame garden views, and French doors open to outdoor living spaces, including a tranquil ornamental pond. The chef's kitchen features Caesarstone countertops, custom maple cabinetry, and 2024 appliances. An East Coast-style hydronic wall heating system ensures cozy winters, while a Generac generator provides year-round comfort. Outdoors, a fully fenced English garden, winding walking trails, and multiple sitting areas await. A dedicated campsite with water and electricity is perfect for summer guests. The artisan guest cabin offers flexible space, and high-speed internet makes working from home a breeze. Located in a Fire Wise community with emergency access, this property offers privacy and peace of mind. This is more than home, it's a sanctuary ready for its next stewards.
