Nestled amongst the trees close to Yosemite National park, this one-of-a-kind Sierra retreat is more than a place to live—it’s a whole feeling. Built in 1972 by the president of the Yosemite Association, the 2,304-square-foot home sits on 3.642 recently cleared acres bordering more than 370 acres of BLM land. The airy, unique home and dreamy pool combine to create a wonderfully private refuge with the mountains, trails and wild landscape of the Sierra just beyond your doorstep. Inside, the 3-bedroom, 3-bath home is bright and welcoming. The main level features two bedrooms, one with a private bath, a guest bath with laundry and spacious living and family rooms. The well placed kitchen opens to the living room and a gorgeous sunroom dining area. French doors lead to the pool and patio, where sunny afternoons give way to beautiful, star-filled nights. Upstairs, the entire level is devoted to the primary bedroom and bath with tall ceilings and beautiful views. A private retreat set apart from the rest of the home. The attached garage and finished attic provide additional flexible space and storage. Owned solar, a tankless hot water heater, owned propane tank and zoned mini-splits help offset energy costs. Outside shines with a freshly painted exterior, metal roof, a fenced garden area with irrigation system, surrounded by a mix of mature trees and open ground with two seasonal creeks. This property has been both a beloved family home and a short-term rental, welcoming people who came to experience Yosemite and the surrounding mountains. Now it's ready for its next chapter—whether as a full-time home, Sierra getaway or a place to gather family and friends in the best of California’s Gold Country.
