24395 State Highway 20

Imagine pulling off Highway 20 and onto a private drive that winds through the pines. You arrive at this classic A-frame sanctuary, and it feels like stepping into a storybook. Towering trees surround the home, their breezes dancing through tall wood-beamed ceilings and walls of glass. A massive rock fireplace sets the tone perfect for fires, intimate gatherings, or even indoor grilling as the seasons shift. Golden light spills across the wraparound deck, where you'll sip coffee and take in cathedral-like forest views. Evenings are spent fireside, wrapped in a blanket, scent of pine and hearth in the air, the kind of calm only the Sierras can offer. This isn't just a house - it's a retreat with heart. The land backs to untouched BLM forest, so your trails start right at the door. And when you're not hiking or curled up with a book? You're floating in your private pool under the trees. Minutes from downtown Nevada City yet somehow, a world away.
