This acreage is situated on a quiet, paved county road, and is just 18-19 minutes to Hwy 50, less than 1 hour to Sacramento, AND just 1.5 hours to beautiful Lake Tahoe! Enjoy horseback riding, hunting, hiking, or ATVing throughout! Also, there is centrally-located electricity through the property, and again, the paved county road provides easy access to and along the property's East side, so it's these attributes that mean big savings when you decide to further develop here. Additionally, some of the upper portions of the property's west side have been professionally trimmed & thinned, which increases the acreage's usability AND aesthetics. You will not find any other El Dorado County acreages available with these nice attributes. Ah, another plus for you is that, unlike many land offerings, good seller private financing is available to nicely assist you with your purchase here. ***** Last year, the seller's surveyor mapped the entire property, and found the parcel to be 191+ acres, so then we sold the Eastern 78.8 acres last Summer for $475,000. Now this year we are able to offer the remaining 112 acres for $695,000, AND again, the sellers are offering to finance for you!
