    What's special

    Peaceful forest settingNewer lifetime-warranty windowsInterior paintExterior paintUpdated appliancesNew deck
    Private 2.57-acre Fickle Hill retreat with beautiful Pacific Ocean, Humboldt Bay and redwood forest views, located just minutes from Arcata. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,367 square feet of living space in a peaceful forest setting with extensive improvements throughout. Recent improvements include newer lifetime-warranty windows, luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout both levels, custom Craftsman-style interior and exterior window and door trim, interior paint, exterior paint, updated appliances, a newer submersible deep-well pump, new deck and a large custom Italian slate patio and outdoor living area. The home offers multiple heating options, including wood, electric and gas. Approximately 2.57 acres provide privacy, mature forest, usable outdoor space and expansive coastal views. Extensive selective forest and view management has already been completed. Additional features include an attached approximately 1.5-car garage, large 10' x 20' storage shed and an additional rustic cabin/storage structure located lower on the property. The rustic cabin was historically used as living space and previously had utility connections. It is currently a storage structure and is not being represented as a permitted residence. Any future use or conversion would be subject to Humboldt County requirements and buyer verification. The property is currently occupied by excellent month-to-month tenants, creating flexibility for an investor interested in continued occupancy or an owner-occupant buyer depending on possession arrangements. FOR SALE BY OWNER. Cash and conventional financing offers are welcome. Seller financing and other flexible purchase structures may also be considered for a qualified buyer depending on purchase price, down payment, buyer qualifications and overall terms. Because the property is currently occupied, showings will be coordinated in advance with qualified prospective buyers. Contact seller directly for additional information or to arrange a private showing.
    What the owner loves about this home
    What I love most about this property is the combination of privacy, acreage and incredible coastal surroundings while still being only minutes from Arcata. The house sits among mature redwoods on approximately 2.57 acres with beautiful Pacific Ocean, Humboldt Bay and forest views. I've put a tremendous amount of work into improving the property over the years, including newer lifetime-warranty windows, LVP flooring, custom Craftsman-style trim, a new deck, Italian slate outdoor living area, updated appliances, a newer deep-well pump and extensive forest and view management. It is an unusually peaceful place with room to breathe, beautiful sunsets and the feeling of being removed from town without actually being far away.
