Tucked into 20 private acres at the base of the Beckwourth Peak, this 2021 custom-built home offers a rare blend of solitude and sophistication. From nearly every window, the land unfolds into layered views of Sierra Valley, a backdrop that shifts with the seasons and never gets old. History runs through the property too: a rail line once passed through this land, a detail noted in local history books and part of what makes the setting so distinctive. Inside, 2,622 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space balances comfort with craftsmanship. Two bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths give the home an intimate, easy-to-live-in scale, each bedroom equipped with its own mini-split for personalized climate control, layered with radiant floor heat throughout for quiet, even warmth all season long. Custom cabinetry appears in every room, lending a cohesive, tailored feel from one space to the next. The kitchen is a true showpiece, anchored by a 6-burner Miele cooktop and Miele wall oven with steam feature, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a stone farm sink, finished with a tankless water heater and whole-home water filtration system. Bathrooms carry floor-to-ceiling tile for a clean, spa-like feel, and a Jøtul wood-burning stove brings warmth and character to the living space on cool valley evenings. The laundry room is no afterthought either, finished with counter space, cabinetry, and a sink for real everyday functionality. Step outside to a Trex deck off the loft, the perfect perch for morning coffee or evening stargazing above the valley. Just below, a greenhouse garden is already thriving, home to hops and grapes, garlic, tomatoes, and wild sunflowers, offering a head start for anyone dreaming of a self-sufficient mountain lifestyle. The location is a playground for outdoor life in every season: road, gravel, and mountain biking; hiking and trail running right out the door; and full winter sports access nearby. Lake Davis, Frenchman Lake, and the Feather River are all close at hand for fishing, paddling, and lake days. And with nearly 65% of Sierra Valley now permanently protected through conservation easements, this natural setting and the views that come with it are safeguarded for good. For the right buyer, there is a nearly 800-acre ranch available for purchase in conjunction with this property. Whether you're drawn by the privacy, the craftsmanship, or the year-round access to the outdoors, 5720 Money Road delivers a rare combination in today's market with newer construction paired with true acreage, thoughtful finishes, and a backdrop that's protected for the long term.
