This beautifully upgraded 1 bed, 1 bath historic cabin offers the perfect blend of charm, privacy, and location. Situated at the end of a private street just 0.2 miles from Main Street Placerville, the home feels tucked away while still being incredibly walkable. Recent upgrades include newer mini-split systems for efficient heating and cooling, an energy-efficient roof, and durable Cool Life paint siding. The home also features a natural building artist's retreat on the hillside-an ideal off-grid writing or meditation space (no electricity, code compliant). The 4,500+ sq ft lot has been thoughtfully landscaped with California natives over the last 8 years, creating a lush, private garden that supports local wildlife. A majestic 100+ year-old oak (deemed healthy by an ISA certified arborist in 2022) and mature black walnut trees add to the natural beauty. Located just over the bridge from the El Dorado Trail network and walkable to restaurants, shops, and more, this one-of-a-kind property is a rare find in a highly desirable location.
