Property Description
Berry Creek, CA — 47.64 Acres | Creek Frontage, Highway Access, Well & Historic Gold Mines
Discover an exceptional opportunity to own 47.64 acres of private, secluded land in the heart of Berry Creek. This expansive property is well suited for a custom home, cabin, or recreational retreat, offering a rare combination of creek frontage, paved highway access, essential improvements, and historic character.
The property features several hundred feet of year-round creek frontage, creating a peaceful natural setting ideal for fishing, relaxation, and enjoying the surrounding wildlife. A sturdy bridge, rated for heavy equipment, crosses the creek and provides direct access to the main parcel from the paved Oro Quincy Highway.
Adding to the land's unique appeal, the property contains at least two abandoned gold mines dating back to the California Gold Rush era, offering a distinctive historical element and potential interest for collectors, historians, or recreational land buyers. Buyers are advised to satisfy themselves regarding location, condition, and safety.
Additional features include a well located on the property (buyer to verify condition and capacity) and both highway and internal access—making this a strong candidate for development, recreation, or long-term land investment.
Surrounded by mature pine trees, scenic views, and abundant wildlife, the property provides exceptional privacy while remaining close to modern conveniences. Lake Oroville is just minutes away, offering boating, fishing, swimming, hiking, and a wide range of outdoor recreational opportunities.
This largely untouched acreage presents a rare opportunity to create a private foothill retreat that blends natural beauty, accessibility, recreational amenities, and a tangible connection to California's Gold Rush history.
