First time on the market! A rare opportunity to steward an incredibly special compound with soul-filling views, Diamond Oaks Homestead is a custom 3BR/3BA residence (2,714 SF, built 2002) on 20+ private acres just about 5 minutes from historic Nevada City. Designed with architect Jeff Gold and landscape designer Jo McProud, and nestled among dramatic granite boulders and heritage oaks, the home blends craftsmanship with nature. Radiant-heated concrete floors flow seamlessly indoors, while expansive windows and French doors frame sunsets over the Sutter Buttes and Coastal Range. Highlights include a Rumford fireplace, high coved ceilings, custom cabinetry, artisan sinks, and mahogany accents throughout. A separate loft apartment plus a versatile guest suite with private entry and kitchenette offer flexibility for multigenerational living or extended stays. The 1,700 SF finished shop with office, bathroom and roll up door, supports many a creative pursuit or convert it into a second residence! Owned solar, abundant well water, and cultivated meadows enhance sustainability. Groomed paths meander to several gathering spots, while proximity to the Yuba River, Firewise neighborhood, and easy access to Highways 49 and 20 add to the property's natural beauty, history, and convenience.
