Nestled in the peaceful Lincoln foothills is a 2.4-acre parcel with plenty of shade appeal.

“This property is for a buyer who wants country property that could be out of their reach. It is an affordable price,” said Paula Ahart, Barringer Realty listing agent. “If they are not raising horses or cattle and they want a little peace and quiet, this is an ideal place.”

The main house is 1251 square feet with three bedrooms and two full baths off a private road on Highway 193, just east of Sierra College Boulevard.

“There are only four homes on that private road,” Ahart said.

With central heat, the home affords a wood-burning stove surrounded by a brick fireplace for cold nights. During the hot summer, the Mulberry trees cover the roof, so you could get a break on your electric bill. In the spring and fall the cozy shade trees surround the home and create a relaxing mood to enjoy the country air.

“The shade trees make it a nice spot to be out in the open air without the sun glaring on you,” Ahart said.

Concrete walkways encircle the house lined with perennial flowers.

Visitors will notice the over-sized bay window in the great room. Most of the windows are large and allow the natural light to fill the living spaces.

“The natural light in the living areas, to me, is very important,” Ahart said.

With a gas range, the galley-style kitchen has plenty of counter space. It leads into the large breakfast nook overlooking the great room.

“You don’t have to do anything to live here. It’s been well maintained,” Ahart said. “The home would be attractive for people who want to update it with their own touches.”

A second two-car garage not attached sits at the corner of the property and could be used for just about any kind of hobby or sport.

“The second garage is basically storage now, but it could be a workshop,” Ahart said.

It’s just far enough out of town to enjoy country living but close enough to enjoy Lincoln amenities. The owners just drilled a new well last year.

“It’s 120 feet deep and between 25-35 gallons a minute,” Ahart said. “They also have irrigation water through the PCWA.”

A fenced grassy backyard and covered patio would be good place for entertaining or a spot for a dog run.

The Lincoln foothills property is offered at $319,000 by motivated sellers. For more information and a private showing you can contact Paula Ahart at (916) 645-8967 or (916) 768-0378.
