5540 Pine Ridge Rd, Foresthill, CA 95631

A rare opportunity for builders, investors, and nature enthusiasts to create a dream home near Auburn in an authentic mountain retreat setting! 5.7 usable acres with existing on-site infrastructure, including electricity, public water, and septic. Potential lot split, with a 2.3-acre minimum parcel size and possible multiple ADUs on each lot, subject to Placer County approval. Tear-down structures include a 784-square foot manufactured home on a permanent foundation, carport, detached one-car garage and shed. The asking price reflects an estimated $20,000 demolition and removal cost. From the moment you arrive, the property offers a peaceful feel. Situated on an elevated hilltop, this property features largely level, open, usable land set among clusters of mature trees. Pleasant breezes from the canyon add to the comfort of the site. At approximately 2,000 feet in elevation, occasional winter snow adds seasonal charm. One of the property's key advantages is its quick, one-minute access to Foresthill Road. It is approximately 14 minutes from Auburn/I-80 via a scenic and low-traffic route, and about 10 minutes from downtown Foresthill. At the same time, the property is buffered by forest, creating privacy and separation from road noise. Most surrounding homes are situated on substantial acreage, adding to the sense of space and privacy. The property is also adjacent to the high-end Eagle Ridge Estate while offering more acreage at a more affordable price point. Enjoy the fabulous scenic surroundings and abundant recreational opportunities, with a three-minute walk to the forest road leading to the canyon and the North Fork of the American River on one side, and a five-minute drive to the renowned Western States Trail leading toward the Middle Fork of the American River on the other.
