The world’s getting louder, faster, and more chaotic — and then there’s Cottonwood Creek Farmhouse in Sierraville. Here, off-grid energy meets on-grid elegance. Vintage bones, modern systems, and a self-contained guest suite that flexes to fit your life. It’s the kind of place you buy when you want to unplug — but still keep your fiber-optic WiFi strong enough for your Zoom board meeting in Paris. This reimagined 1890s retreat sits on 1.13 private, creekside acres bordered by a year-round stream. A wide front porch welcomes you to slow down, while inside, whitewashed interiors, wide-plank floors, and artisan tile baths shine thanks to a full foundation-to-roof renovation. The attached private guest quarters offer their own kitchen, bath, and airy, high-ceilinged living space — ideal for visiting friends and family, a creative studio, or multi-generational living. The property may be rented for 30 days or longer, and short-term rental permitting is possible in accordance with Sierra County regulations (buyer to verify eligibility). Outside, a sun-kissed meadow invites you to raise chickens, cultivate a garden, or simply enjoy the rural rhythm of the Lost Sierra. Boho charm meets modern practicality in a setting where life feels lighter. Home is occupied — appointments kindly requested in advance for all showings. Buyer is advised to consult Sierra County Planning Department for STR eligibility and permitting requirements.
