Yellowstone Fan? - Best Kept Secret in California, Just Minutes to UC Merced and Yosemite National Park
Majestic Cathey's Valley, a beautiful log cabin home perched atop the world in the rolling foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range, offers a 360-degree view of the valley, stretching as far as Madera, with stunning surroundings of 10 acres of century-old oak and pine trees. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home provides 2,368 sq. ft. of living space. It features a spacious great room with a cozy, sublime wood-burning fireplace custom-built with area native precious stone, central heating and air conditioning, a full basement, and a loft that one could only dream of having, with breathtaking views, opening onto a circular terrace. The beautiful patio on the main level around the house, combined with natural landscaping that blends with the pool, creates perfect spaces for warm summer days and stargazing nights. Enjoy great schools and a friendly community. The location offers easy access to Yosemite National Park, only 25 minutes to the newest UC in Merced, California, and convenient access to medical facilities, shopping, restaurants, and the country life of the rich and famous—yet only two hours from San Francisco. Public transportation options, including buses, the airport, and Amtrak, are just 29 minutes away. Why not live like the rich and famous without the high price?
