Rare opportunity to own almost 5 rural acres in the Bay Area bordering HARD to the east and south. Situated in Stony Brook Canyon, 36210 Palomares Road is perfect for the individual or family that embraces self sufficiency, privacy, and a lifestyle that can't be had in tract home subdivisions, yet is near economic hubs if working a regular job is desired. This property was until recently a working farm, supporting 4 goats, 11 sheep and 80 chickens with a garden growing garlic, strawberries, corn, kale, tomatoes, peppers, broccoli and blackberries, yet is about 12 miles from the Tesla factory in Fremont, 20 miles from the Oakland airport and a little over 21 miles from the Lawrence Livermore Lab. There is a large chicken coop and dog kennel, a woodshed, small workshop and barn stall, and archery range. The bottom half of the property is fenced and is 4H ready, plus you have a long frontage on Stony Brook Creek, wild edibles such as miners lettuce, feverfew and California bay, and 5,000 gallons of water storage fed by a natural spring. The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house has been extensively remodeled and upgraded with 2 of the bedrooms being oversized, 2 updated full bathrooms, and a large covered porch to spend outdoor leisure time on, plus room for an RV and garage/shop.
