Welcome to your own private sanctuary nestled along the breathtaking banks of Butte Creek, offering nearly 500 feet of pristine creek frontage, including the iconic Rich Bar Rapid, multiple swimming holes, and shaded beach areas—perfect for relaxation, recreation, and unforgettable summer days. Anglers will love the fishing season for steelhead and the largest spring run of Chinook salmon in the state; everyone will be romanced by the endless soundtrack of Butte Creek, heard throughout the property. This rare gem sits on over 6 acres, more than 3 of which are located on a fully irrigated flat parcel between the home and creek, so rare in Butte Creek Canyon. The property is beautifully landscaped with native and pollinator-friendly plantings, complete with walking paths, a badminton area, thoughtfully placed landscape lighting, and peaceful sitting areas throughout. Whether you’re enjoying a morning stroll or an afternoon game, the grounds are as functional as they are picturesque. Step inside the remodeled, contemporary home and take in the sweeping views of the lush emerald hills and rock bluffs across the creek. Every room offers a stunning perspective of the natural beauty that surrounds you. With 1,200 sq. ft. of outdoor living space, this home is designed to connect you with nature at every turn. Multiple decks and seating areas make entertaining or quiet evenings under the stars equally inviting. Enter through a gated courtyard adorned with a soothing fountain, setting the tone for the tranquil experience that awaits inside. The property also boasts a new detached 4-car garage and a dedicated gear shed by the creek—ideal for storing outdoor furniture, kayaks, paddleboards, cornhole, and all your adventure gear. Open any window and you’ll be greeted by the magical sounds of rushing whitewater, rustling trees, and abundant bird life. With a seasonal creek bordering one side of the property, this home provides an immersive nature experience while still being conveniently close to town. This is more than an elegant home with unmatched outdoors amenities—it’s a lifestyle. Modern upgrades meet peaceful canyon living in one of the most unique properties in Butte County.
