WHAT IF THE REAL VALUE ISN’T JUST THE HOUSE-IT’S WHAT COMES WITH IT? More than 5 acres. Central Valley views. A private road shared with just 11 other estate properties. A productive well, 1 fenced acre for animals, room for a shop, RV, toys or potentially another living space. And already sitting on it: a spacious 4 bedroom home you can enjoy today while deciding what tomorrow should look like. Ever fallen for listing photos only to arrive and discover a hulking stucco house practically on the lot line? Not here. Except for a few twinkling lights through the trees at night, you won’t know your neighbors’ homes are even there. Yet this isn’t isolation. Most neighboring homeowners are retirees, creating a quiet atmosphere along a private road. And here’s something the map doesn’t quite convey: the back roads provide your own little secret entrance into Twain Harte with its restaurants and shops. Sonora and everyday conveniences are also close by. You can disappear into 5 acres without disappearing from civilization. A recent appraisal by a local appraiser tells the value story at the current asking price. This home offers abundant windows , generous living areas, a southwest-facing deck overlooking sunsets, valley lights and on clear days, a glistening Modesto Reservoir in the distance. The primary suite includes a walk-in shower and clawfoot tub. A private office with Starlink makes working from home practical-leaving the commute and city bustle behind. The acreage offers flexibility. A secluded road provides access and possibilities for a 2nd living space up to approx. 1200 sq. ft. with applicable approvals. Altitude has its benefits ,too. Heating and cooling costs are quite manageable. Fire hydrant on property, fire station a 1/2 mile away plus brush and tree fire-mitigation work is proposed for 2026-27. City water available at the street. Step out the front door onto the mountain. Hiking and mountain biking provide immediate access to Mt. Elizabeth Fire Lookout on top of the mountain. A TUD ditch adds trickling ambience, wildlife and stocked trout fishing on your property. Twain Harte, Dodge Ridge, Pinecrest, New Melones, Sonora Pass, Kennedy Meadows and Yosemite put 4 season recreation in easy reach. 5+ ACRES IN A SPECIAL FOOTHILL SETTING, A 4 BEDROOM HOME ALREADY IN PLACE, AND ROOM TO MAKE IT YOUR OWN.
