End-of-the-lane privacy, stunning views, and redwood serenity—this 3.33-acre hilltop homestead offers a one-of-a-kind lifestyle nestled among the trees with sweeping vistas of the Eel River, valley, and surrounding hills.

The 3 bed/2 bath main home features a newer Wolf range, multiple heating options (forced air, monitor heater, and wood stove), and an attached ADU studio added in 2022—perfect for guests, extended family, or rental income. A detached studio/playhouse adds even more flexibility.

Outbuildings abound: a 1300 sq ft insulated metal shop, large carport, smokehouse, shed, predator-proof chicken coop, and an extra pen ready for pigs or goats. Many improvements were constructed using beautiful old-growth redwood, including the shed and coop—built from wood salvaged from the old Rio Dell Bowling Alley. Metal roofs on all structures are only about 4 years old.

The property is on city water and offers a bounty of fruit with apple, plum, peach, Asian pear, and banana trees. Walking trails and tucked-away nooks invite you to explore, relax, or create your dream garden spaces.

Whimsical and unique features bring unexpected joy, including a working barber pole on the studio and a stoplight on the carport that functions as a motion light. And as if that weren’t enough—wildlife abounds here. A bald eagle family with two young ones are known to visit regularly, a true testament to the peace and natural beauty of this special place.

Whether you’re homesteading, multi-generational living, or simply looking for a quiet retreat with character, this property fits many life stages and lifestyles. There’s truly something for everyone here.
