Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This nearly three-acre wooded mountain lot is set up for residential development, with site perc-testing and approval for up to a 6-bedroom home. The property has been improved with a decomposed granite driveway, and the terrain runs level, drops into a gentle slope, then levels again, which can suit a daylight basement design. The site also includes proposed well and septic planning, with Idaho Power available at the property.
The lot is located in Star Ranch, south of Placerville, with access from both Hwy 21 and Hwy 55. County-maintained roads provide year-round access considerations that are typically important for mountain properties, and the area is characterized by ponderosa pines and mountain views.
For buyers ready to build, the most significant due diligence step related to wastewater appears to be addressed through the approved perc testing for an up to 6-bedroom residence. With no HOA and only recorded CC&Rs, the property offers a straightforward path toward planning and permits, supported by the existing driveway work and access from two highway routes.
