Set at the end of a private lane in Rio Dell, this 3,183-square-foot residence sits on 7.75+ flat, usable acres -- the kind of land that opens up a conversation about what you actually want your life to look like. Hobby farm. Horse property. Creative retreat. Remote work headquarters. The acreage doesn't prescribe a lifestyle; it accommodates one.
Built in 2008, the home offers four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms across a thoughtfully scaled floor plan -- generous enough for a family, versatile enough for guests, and dedicated to a home office or multi-generational living. The covered front porch frames the surrounding natural and invites the kind of slow mornings that are hard to come by anywhere else. A detached two-car garage adds convenience and storage without crowding the main structure, and the fully fenced yard brings a sense of definition to the sprawling grounds.
Inside, the composition shingle roof, quality finishes, and 2008 construction timeline mean buyers inherit a well-built home -- not a project. What you see is what you get, and what you get is substantial.
The property is also known as Dinsmore Ranch Road -- a name that suits it well. This is genuine North Coast California living: scenic, private, and priced to reflect real value at $975,000.
