About This Home

As of November 2023

"CAMP FAIRFAX" has only had two owners in over 60 years! This stunning 3/4-acre wooded parcel in the hills above Fairfax offers beautiful valley views, ample sunshine, total privacy, plentiful parking, street to street frontage, and is just a few minutes stroll to downtown Fairfax with direct access to hiking/biking trails right off of the property. Much of the hard work has been done with previous approvals in place for a four-bedroom three and a half bath home plus an ADU utilizing the existing structures. Assessor only counts one structure but two are in place. There is also SB9 lot split potential for additional development of another home plus ADU (see town and Owner/Broker regarding same). Second structure currently has two studio units that have been in place for a decade. Upper unit is owner occupied, lower unit rents for $2,050.00 mo. (see town and Owner/Broker for details). Separate cottage below rents for $1,600.00 mo. Bring your contractor, investors or those searching for a piece of paradise.
