About This Home

12278 Cement Hill Rd

Situated in one of Nevada City's most sought-after neighborhoods, this exceptional property captures beautiful views of the Sierras while offering privacy and convenience just two miles from historic downtown Nevada City. Thoughtfully redesigned with a Bay Area architect and meticulously restored by a master cabinetmaker, the home showcases stunning custom cabinetry and detailed millwork crafted from reclaimed wood, including from the historic Stanford Encina Gymnasium. The result is a seamless blend of craftsmanship, character, and modern comfort. The home features four bedrooms plus an office, three bathrooms, and sits on 5.19 acres of mostly level land with a gentle slope leading to the NID trail. It is served by domestic water, while much of the usable land is irrigated with NID untreated irrigation water, pumped from a ditch at the lower end of the property, where a charming trail runs alongside. Designed for comfort and efficiency, the home is well insulated and features radiant floor heating throughout, along with owned solar panels. Also included is a whole house generator. The fully permitted MD metal barn, built in 2014, offers a concrete ribbon foundation and insulated roof. The 36x36 structure includes three stalls, a work/tack room, a 12x36 covered porch, two outdoor corrals, an arena and 50-foot round pen. A gravel barn road with deeded access off Augustine Road loops behind the barn, allowing easy access even with a horse trailer. For those not interested in equestrian use, the arena and round pen can be repurposed into gardens, an accessory dwelling unit, or other possibilities. The fully fenced backyard features raised garden beds, a wildflower meadow, and a small orchard with plum, pear, fig, apple, and cherry trees, creating a peaceful and versatile outdoor setting.
