Welcome to an extraordinary 55-acre estate where refined country living meets the breathtaking beauty of Northern California. Set among gently rolling hills beneath a canopy of magnificent Blue, Valley, and Live Oaks, this remarkable ranch offers peaceful natural surroundings and the charm of a seasonal pond that reflects the changing skies. A private 1.5-mile walking trail winds through the property, inviting quiet morning strolls and unforgettable sunset vistas. From select vantage points on the property, there are distant glimpses of Mount Shasta. The two-story farmhouse is warm, inviting, and thoughtfully designed, offering 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. A classic wraparound porch welcomes you home and provides the perfect place to relax and take in the surrounding landscape. Inside, the grand living room features soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and a dramatic wood-burning fireplace that anchors the space with timeless character. A main-level bedroom with private exterior access offers flexible options for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. Complementing the main residence is an impressive barndominium-style structure that combines a substantial garage/workshop with additional living space. The garage features insulated doors and post-mount openers, and bathroom, while above it you'll find an expansive 1,000+ square foot loft --offering exciting potential for a private workspace or storage. The beautifully newly finished 1,064-square-foot ADU elevates the estate even further. Designed with quality and craftsmanship in mind, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence features 9-foot ceilings, walk-in closets in both bedrooms, efficient mini-split heating and cooling, and striking black stainless appliances. The kitchen is appointed with quartz countertops and rich hickory cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers. Additional highlights include on-demand hot water, a pantry, knock-down smear walls, LVP flooring, and a wrap-around porch--creating a space that feels both luxurious and welcoming, ideal for extended family, guests, or premium rental income. A separate shop with a woodstove supports year-round projects, while a 24kW Generac automatic backup generator ensures comfort and reliability throughout the property. Equestrian and ranch amenities are equally impressive, with a well-equipped barn offering two stalls, two runs, a tack room, and 14-foot roll-up doors ready to accommodate horses or livestock. Located in the city of Cottonwood in Tehama County, just 30 minutes from both Redding and Red Bluff, this estate offers the rare combination of privacy, functionality, and convenience. More than a property, this is a lifestyle defined by space, beauty, and possibility--whether envisioned as a working ranch, equestrian retreat, multigenerational estate, or private sanctuary.
