This 6.67 acre gem is one of the best undeveloped lots in Forest Ranch. The serenity is a nature lover's dream, light years from Chico but only a short drive away. Reach Upper Bidwell's trails in minutes. Fly fishing Deer Creek or exploring Lassen Park are easy day trips. The potential of this site must be seen to experience.
At 2,700 feet of elevation, the land is blessed with a delightful variety of trees including CA black oak, canyon live oak, sugar pine, ponderosa pine, douglas fir, CA incense cedar, dogwood, manzanita (much of it has been removed), and Pacific yew. Some giant trophy trees grace the land. Woodland wildlife abounds. Filtered views can be seen through the canyon to Musty Buck Ridge and may be further opened up.
Privacy abounds in this neighborhood, zoned as 5 acre minimums. No one else can build on any side of you! Several acres are flat enough to be very usable. A potential home site has been opened up with good sun access and solar potential. PGE is at both neighboring properties. A 3 acre conversion through CalFire could bring potential profit though timber sales or to further clear the land.
As the lot is on the corner of Forest Ranch Road and Tiger Lily, there is potential to have entirely paved access to your new home. Keep the car clean! Tiger Lily is a well maintained gravel road. Two unimproved driveways give access to the property's interior.
Water rights to a well shared with only one other parcel included. Although the severe drought tested the well's capacity, the well was checked this year and had a good bill of health when the neighbors purchased their home. A new pump was added within the year. Currently, water supply is available at one spigot but quantity is limited. One will want to install an auxiliary pump and holding tank which Mcmahon Pump in Chico said was straight forward.
The lot is close enough to the fire station to reduce insurance costs and cell service/data through Verizon or Visible works well. Make the move across town or join this neighborly community for the first time!
