Cow Creek frontage!

Beautiful 16+- acres on Cow Creek in Millville, CA. This park-like waterfront setting and custom home are tailor made for country living at its finest, yet close to all the amenities. The 3,088 sq. ft. home is beautifully crafted and well appointed. High vaulted ceilings of western red cedar and many windows provide beautiful light and offer views of the mature landscaping and towering oaks surrounding the home. The 4 bed, 4 bath home has separate living and family rooms, a well appointed kitchen, and a large formal dining room. The 2nd story primary bedroom contains an en suite bathroom with dual sinks and walk in shower, and provides gorgeous views and natural light from its many windows. The bedroom opens to a balcony providing the perfect spot to enjoy the morning coffee while watching deer roam the stream-side meadow below. The first floor bedroom would be an ideal guest room with its en suite bathroom and direct access to the deck. The kitchen boasts rustic solid cherry cabinets and granite countertops and is ideal for entertaining. It contains dual ovens and a six burner gas stove and connects to the large back deck, the dining room and includes a pass-through to the family room. A large pantry is just off the kitchen.

The large back deck runs the length of the home and leads down to the pool and outdoor kitchen with commercial stove and bartop, all of it providing a lovely view of the meadow below.

Outbuilding improvements include a well-built two story barn with a tack room, equipment storage and 3 stalls with paddocks, as well as a shop building containing a large walk-in cold box refrigeration room. In the past, the owners used a portable diesel pump (included in the sale) to lift water out of Cow Creek and irrigate the fields via underground mainline with irrigation valves. They ran 20-25 head of cattle along with horses.

Cow Creek is a year-round stream and fun warm-water fishery also harboring a run of King Salmon, providing some exciting viewing opportunities as these fish splash and spawn in the Fall. Additionally, during cooler months and following some rain events, large rainbow trout opportunistically move up out of the Lower Sacramento and can provide for some great small stream backyard fishing for big rainbows! A nice gravel bar and several good fishing runs are on the property. Wildlife abounds along the creek, from deer and turkeys to the occasional bald eagle.

There are also 2 adjoining parcels to the south available by the Seller for purchase – call for details! The home and barn are situated on the northerly acreage of 3 parcels and the 2 southerly parcels a great hold for investment or expansion!
