The Albion River cuts through this 3-acre parcel, baby Salmon are currently hanging around the pools. There are 91 acres of conservation fund property adjacent to the south. 20 miles to Anderson Valley and 15 miles to the ocean, it is nicely located for those who like a little more heat. Having the coastal influence from the Albion River and the Comptche Fire department right down the road, this property is in the Moderate Fire Risk zone, better for insurance. The water system has 4,000 gallons of storage and runs the perimeter of the upper 2 acres for easy irrigation or fire protection. There are mature fruit trees and a heritage garden ready to be claimed. The clay kiln has its own propane tank and is ready to fire up. Easy to create horse habitat. A lot of the same redwood in the house has been holding it up for over 150 years. In the 70's the current owners rebuilt the barn with new rebar strengthened concrete footings, all new strappings and used the original crown heart redwood beams (one of the beams is 12' by 12' and 50 foot long) to establish the solid foundation. This artist and musician designed an open floor plan to live, play and record music and create beautiful works of art. The first floor is 1250 sq feet with an open ceiling above the kitchen, dining and living area. The music nook and bathroom are below the 650 square foot second floor where there are 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, and then there is the attic.... Off the first floor there is an 800-square-foot art/music studio, with vaulted ceilings and wonderful light and just past this room is an attached,750-square-foot garage/shop. Of course, on hot days you can splash in the river or take a swim in the pool, or sit on the covered, or uncovered, part of the deck. Words cannot describe this amazing piece of history, photos do not do justice, so call and make an appointment to check it out. Open House June 15th, 11-2, Comptche Fire Department BBQ is happening just down the road on the same day.
