Girard Ridge Rd, Castella, CA 96017

Private Oasis Adjacent to the Sacramento River One of the best land opportunities in Northern California! This 17-acre forested retreat is tucked into the scenic hills of Castella, bordering Sierra Pacific land and just 1,000 feet from the Sacramento River. Offering a rare combination of privacy, accessibility, and flexibility. Located only one mile off I-5, the parcel is gated with well-maintained road access leading directly to the entrance. Two completely private building pads have already been cleared, making the property ready for development. Zoned “Unclassified,” the land supports a wide range of possibilities—residential or commercial use, stick-built or manufactured homes. Power is available to the property line, and timber harvesting is approved in this area, including a 3 acre exemption for non-commercial owners. Nature lovers will appreciate the unparalleled location. You’re within walking distance of the Sacramento River, minutes from Castle Crags State Park, and just a short drive from Mount Shasta, Burney Falls, and Lassen Volcanic National Park. With quick access to I-5 and proximity to some of Northern California’s most iconic outdoor destinations.
