About This Property
A property like this doesn't come around often. Set on 10+ flat,
usable acres at ~3,600 ft elevation in this cool, forested part of
Shasta County, is a rare blend of water, privacy, and possibility,
offered at just $345,000. The land is the story. A creek
flows through the property with State of California water rights
(diversion & storage), feeding a striking half-acre pond fully
contained within the grounds. Today, the pond has grown in with
cattails and the landscape has softened into a more natural state,
offering a unique opportunity to restore its truly special setting.
Evergreens, aspens, and open meadows create a beautiful, serene
environment, with underground utilities preserving uninterrupted
natural views. Whether you envision a private retreat, event venue,
small farm, or income-producing getaway, the A-1 zoning enables a
wide range of uses, including additional structures. At the
center sits a 1,600 sq ft building, originally part of a nursery
and gift shop, now offering a blank canvas with windows on all
sides, skylights, and a flexible open layout. A kitchenette,
shower, ADA half bath, and existing systems (septic, well, propane
heat) provide the foundation to reimagine the space as a residence,
live/work setup, or hospitality concept. Supporting structures
include an 1,800 sq ft pole barn, greenhouse frame, tool shed, and
carport. Private access road (Upcountry Ct) directly from Highway
44, curves through the woods as the home and pond unveil.
Walking through the property you'll find historic relics of
the early 1900s Viola Lumber Company's steam-powered mill. With its
later life as a nursery and event space, and most recently as a
residence, the property carries both history and forward potential.
Few properties combine water rights, usable acreage, multiple
structures, and flexible zoning at this price point. An
excellent location, private yet accessible. You're just 20 minutes
from Lassen Volcanic National Park, with year-round recreation
(hiking, snow play, fishing, and boating). The Sacramento River,
Whiskeytown Lake, and nearby Grace and Nora Lakes offer additional
outdoor access, while Redding is just 30 minutes away for full
services, healthcare, and retail. Despite the sense of retreat,
daily essentials are within minutes, and the Bay Area is an easy
~3.5-hour freeway drive
