About This Home

As of December 2025

Discover a Hidden Gem nestled in the scenic Alhambra Valley of Martinez! This unique property offers the perfect blend of rustic charm, seclusion, and untapped potential. The midcentury modern home features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and over 2,099 sq ft of living space and includes a bonus entertainment room (approx. 710 sq ft) on the lower level—ideal for gatherings, game nights, or a cozy media lounge. The bonus room opens to the pool deck that is waiting to be reimagined. Set on 1.16 acres, the property is being sold AS-IS with an adjacent .68-acre parcel—perfect for horse lovers, homesteaders, investors, or anyone ready to bring their vision to life. While the home retains charm in its original condition, it awaits your creative touch, the setting is truly magical. Surrounded by trees, the home sits above the road, neighboring a charming Christmas Tree farm. It is also located near Briones Regional Park offering a close connection to nature. And the standout feature? The iconic Two Bit Ranch Barn—a two-story structure known and loved by locals, instantly recognizable to anyone who’s driven through Alhambra Valley. It’s a unique centerpiece waiting to be restored or repurposed into something incredible. Turn this timeless ranch property into the estate of your dreams!
