A very successful land developer told me is to take pictures/sell land after rains as everything is green and beautiful & buy land in summer heat when its brown and dry and no one wants to be there. Creator knows the secret too :) Beautiful place ~
Thank you, that does show it at its best but I just list it when the seller wants to sell. You will see brown grass in upcoming property videos as they get listed on the open market. But, I am no land developer. lol Thank you for the comment.
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for...
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes...
@@ElijahOliver-t9u The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
This is my absolute favorite property. So much potential and the fact you have 2 creeks, one with fishes, is a bonus. Looks like you have to drive awfully far inland to reach the property but still love it! Thanks for showing
This is beautiful! But PLEASE people, look at the road access, the taxes IF you build, and look into stuff like the fees to run electrical to it (what is the nearest electric pole, think $20k per pole to reach your property). My father bought some incredibly inexpensive land, then we took a family trip to go see it. It was about 100 acres surrounded by other land owners who refused access. They just laughed at my dad.
@@emmas1082 - You aren’t getting anything to a landlocked site without a helicopter, LOL! Check for access rights and easements. I’m not trying to be negative, just suggesting you think first and go in with your eyes and minds open.
@@Erin-Thor did you watch the video? Do you know anything about remote, off grid homes? Nope. You would think by your comments that no one has ever built an off grid home🤣😂🤣 So you don’t think that propane cannot be delivered to an area right by the road, with it piped to the house? That’s a lot cheaper than trying to get a municipal gas line to a remote property. This is definitely for a DIY’r, but everything I mentioned is fairly inexpensive. There are remote off grid cabins all over the country. How do you think they do it?
By the way. Landlocked land have easements for ingress-it is called an easement by necessity. Your dad should have contacted an attorney, not the neighbors.
@@emmas1082 - LOL! Clearly my logic was lost on you. My only point was a little caution when buying a property sight unseen. Go see it. Make sure you can drive or walk to it. No I haven’t seen this property, looks great! But it’s in California so know that now it’s unimproved land, put a house, cabin or whatever on it, add solar, drill a well, put in septic, and now it’s not unimproved and the taxes just might make you rethink living in California when they go from $87 a year to $11,972 a year. All I’m saying is learn from others mistakes. Oh, and no more coffee for you!
Yes it’s beautiful. But as one who lives off grid, insurance is outrageous. If you’re not worried about the cost of replacing your home if a fire should occur, go for it.
@@AbeTheFakeSage I agree... Everyone is programmed to think in a pessimistic way... When do you see optimistic news reports? It's always something to be aware of or fear... Our government has been successful at keeping it's population in a constant state of fear and not living in the moment and just enjoy it for what it is...
Stunning property and I love all the wild life! As far as a structure, I'd dig out part the side of the hill (if that isn't all rock) and build my cabin or small home in two levels. That section in the hillside would have a nice even temp year round. If that couldn't be done, I'd haul a tiny house up there and set it on a flat section. In CA, you have to take steps to fireproof your structure. Insurance will be outrageous if you go that route... Taxes were not cheap when I lived in CA years ago, not sure about rural real estate now. I'd live off-grid 100% with solar, propane, satellite, and generator backup. If the water in the creek is not accessible, I'd install a rain catchment system to dump into one of those huge water tanks and truck in/ haul what I need. As far as gardening, since it's likely rocky ground, I'd install a lot of raised beds in a fenced area to grow my food. That would be my dream on such a beautiful property... if I were younger. I'm too old to start over, but I still enjoy envisioning myself there.
Your right, dig into the hill and build with cement blocks, just remove fire material like trees and weed eat the grass around home, of course a metal roof. You can do a well with solar pump to holding tank and gravity feed to home. I'm just to old also75, and slowing down.
I was looking at this property about 4 years ago along with another one in this old time conservation subdivision , the other one finally sold before I could got a chance to see it . Looks like a lot of folks let their cabins get run down or they leave trailers that rot away on the lots . This spot gets into the 110 to 115 degree territory in the summer woth Cottonwood Creek just being scattered pools in dry years . The pictures of so called trout are really Sacramento Suckerfish or better known as Squaw fish . Those fish wipe out trout redds and should be tossed on the bank for the night critters to eat . I get the feeling that people are selling their lots here pretty cheap for several reasons . The summer heat possible nosey association members dictating what you can do on your land and lack of community . I would like to talk to the locals and see what life is like up there . I spent hours trying to envision what I could do on this lot but I found some others more conducive to my wants and needs . It's nice to see it from a first person perspective like this . If I had this property I would deepen both creeks in spots and mysterious rocks would appear in the creek to retain a little more water in tbe dry months without damming it .
Yes, the creeks can dry up if we get into droughts. The photo of the fish is definitely a a trout, I took that photo of him from a nearby lot I sold and from Cottonwood Creek. This trout is missing the sucker mouth to be a sucker fish. Look at both online and you'll see the difference. You should attend one of the potlucks, the people that collect the road dues are the opposite of nosey from my experience. Some lots are more expensive than others out here, depends on many factors, how much usable land, does it have Cottonwood Creek on it, and is there a way to drive into the lot. I'm glad you found the video useful. That was the goal and thank you for the comments.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate Thanks for your reply . I think the photos of the fish I saw was from updated pictures from about a year after the initial listing . Looked at so many properties back then and still do . I will look at the pictures again but the fish I saw had a different dorsal fin shape than a trout but a friend of mine has caught a trout in the main Cottonwood Creek , I think this is the South fork . No first property I saw here was beautiful with a small pond on it but somehow one of the owners put a barbed wire fence through part of it . Only 45 grand in 2019 , got sold in 2020 I think . I had aspirations of pond building at the bottom of that land but it wasn't to be .
Doing construction or modifying a water tributary in CA. That's risky. Hoping you didn't have a neighbor that would make a complaint. It all looks fantastic is the spring. There are so many better properties available at higher elevations that stay green all year around even during drought years and with paved roads, municipal water, and power, tall trees and no HOA. Cottonwood Creek at only 500 ft elevation is an arid desert in the summer months.
Yes, there are always other properties with other attributes, better or worse. The price of this and those properties will also be in relation to what they have or don't have to offer. The attributes you are talking about will add quite a bit to be able to purchase the property. All depends on what you want to use the property for. Higher elevation will have snow and thus access is more difficult, may need to build to a snow load roof spec etc. There are always tradeoffs and it depend on the buyer and what they are looking for and how much they can afford. This is a good "bang for the buck" property, you can shoot on your property, it has Cottonwood Creek, there is some easy to get to area of the property and it is away from the city. A lot of people buy these lots as a getaway from the bigger cities. It does suite that need very well. If I was selling a lot in upper Oregon or Washington people would say its so green and lush all year, then someone would say ya but it's always gloomy and rainy outside and the sun hardly ever comes out.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate I am finding 3 to 4 thousand feet in elevation is about the sweet spot . Some snow but about 5 to 10 degrees cooler in heatwaves .
We lived on a beautiful 3 acre country property on Cottonwood creek for 15 years, just outside the town of Cottonwood. I enjoyed the country living but the summers are brutal with temps of 100 and above for 3 months per year and often reaching 110 and 115. Temps consistently reach 90s by May and will not come down from that until November and it's getting worse each year. You cannot survive without AC and with a brand new unit our electric bills were averaging $500 per month, that was with thermostat set to 80 degrees. The tiered electric rates in Shasta county went up to 36 cents per KWH for the necessary usage to cool a 2200 sq ft house. We left in 2016 and are so thankful, in the last 15 years there have been devastating fires in that region. We now live off grid in Baja Mexico and the weather is far better here!
Nice. I would have thought that Mexico would be a pretty bad damp heat that you can't sweat off and being so close to the equator line you get the most intense sun rays. I would take the dry heat any day over Mexico or Texas.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate The summer weather in Shasta county is so bad that I often marveled that anyone could live there prior to the era of air conditioning. It's literally life threatening without AC and it got worse every year. For those skeptical of global warming a few years in Shasta county will change your mind. I am quite familiar with lonely Platina road, my advice is to continue west on 36 until reaching the Lost Coast which is a wonderful place to live off grid with very cool temps yet there is a banana belt effect as well there in the King range.
Wouldn't it be better at this elevation (1300')? Yes the valley is notoriously hot. But once you're set up off grid in this beautiful place, you don't have to move much. Just sit on the porch with your fan. Coast nearby is good, but can be the opposite effect with dreary summers. Either place could be a challenge if you want services.
Well I live in far Northern califorina . Del - Norte county off grid above gasquet on 140 acres I own. Never ceases to amaze me that people generalize california like it's the size of a postage stamp. It's a huge state with deserts high deserts cities massive forests ocean rivers lakes etc. Personally I live in the state of Jefferson we don't even recognize what most call california here in the klamath mountains.
@@35t10beven after the fires, it's still some of the most beautiful territory in the entire US. I'm in Mendo in the coast. Yep, I'm barely in the still Ca mindset lol.... once you get north of Willits~ your in the state of Jefferson
What is the zoning? What is allowable outright in that zoning? Is the road accessible year round? How close to the nearest paved road. Is the land in any way encumbered? What is the elevation. Is the creek seasonal or does it flow year round? Are there any wells in the area? Any covenants or restrictions? Who maintains the road? How close to the nearest town/city? Thanks in advance.
I live in C.A. but there are some things people need to know. The woods in C.A. are on a 7-10 year burn cycle. This is evidenced by trees that have evolved along these lines. You can build up there but its gonna burn down 100%. For this reason don't expect fire insurance at any price. Getting electricity up there is problematic to say the least. Again fires which are often caused by electrical lines. At great cost to PG&E who you will be forced to deal with. There's quite a of bit of gold up in them there hills. But you can't really prospect. If they catch up up there with so much as a battery power sluice your chopped liver. Good luck getting a road and running water. No you cannot just take the creek water thanks to the diminishing salmon runs. There is a reason land up there is cheap as sin. Its worthless, that is unless your plan is to grow a ton of pot.
@@Biker65 You might like Washington state. Look around the olympic national forest on the Seattle side. I used to summer up there. Land is cheap. Nobody cares if you develop. Only thing is it's very wet most of the year. You need to heavily consider drainage when looking at properties, especially old ones, or planning to build.
It’s beautiful! I want 40 acres with a creek for $60K! I’ll build a cabin with a wood burning stove, a gravel access road, a septic system, solar power, a big propane tank, a work shop, a hot tub, and a water well. I’d sit out front watching the sunset and drinking a glass of wine, with a content look on my face.
Beautiful land. This would be perfect for seasonal recreation property, setup a temporary camp each year and enjoy without the crowds. Looks like a previous fire did its job on removing the under brush. Looks well managed.
It's so nice to see that so many people that are critical of this property simply because of it being in California! 😂 I moved to California from the East Coast 50 years ago. I'm happy to see these people that have such prejudices don't move here. Ignorance is bliss, I'm happy that they are blissful in Texas, Florida Arkansas Oklahoma Alabama and Mississippi and a few other states! 😂💙☘️
California is a shit hole its so bad they literally have an app for that, btw the whole map is shit brown. As long as thier voting for the loony bin to run the state....no one is California dreamin
It's not the geography that turns people off, but to the contrary. Most people love California's geography. They just cannot stand the politics and taxes. I know that area. It's going to turn brown and get really hot. Early spring is a good time to visit.
Well, working over 30 years as a professional contractor in California and other states. California has the worst stupid nonsense codes, laws and bylaws. Don’t have time to go over all of these crap. But, I’m not selling the property making it sounds so awesome. You have to do that to sell the property. I suggest people looking into that before buying or investing anything in California.
@@speedwayman100 Besides the costs, dealing with this corrupted idiot at building department, propane outdoor tank and I could go for hours. It’s not worth the headache. Dude, you’re talking about a bunch of pot headed officials in California.
Most people can’t comprehend law, nor could they comprehend the difference between law and codes. Get a law dictionary for clarity, start with ordinance/ license, Regis. Etc, basic, extremely basic.
Wonderful land me and my wife both 64 and I live in Minnesota I try to move out of snow but I don’t need to buy 2-3 acres and put some mobile home that it’s thank you so much for video
Rural land in CA is much cheaper than people think. Cheaper than land in the midwest because in the midwest the land can be used for farming, so there is a clear value to it based on the revenue from crops. Whereas this type of rocky, hilly land in CA can't be used for much. Just kind of hanging out. And it can be costly to develop since it is rocky, and there's also wild fire risk. So it's not exactly what it seems.
d of prop 13, by putting up fees the courts have been friendly towards the people of late claiming many of the fees are just hidden taxes. One of the county lost a major case on that, but I said most. The last case kept the fees open as long as its in reason. Basically the government needs to justify the fee, and they have to follow certain procedures before adding it. what the county did was put a 60,000 dollar fee to develop the property and couldnt show the work on how they got the number and why it benefits I think the owner. d of prop 13, by putting up fees the courts have been friendly towards the people of late claiming many of the fees are just hidden taxes.

During non drought years its a beautiful area. Spring fall and winter are amazing, but July through September it is real hot and sometimes very hot. Great news is the drought is over for now.
Beautiful !!!! Unfortunately I wouldn’t take it as a gift cause of the possibility I might get sued by trespassing squatters, there’s a likely chance they’ll prevail in a Cali court
😂😂😂 this property is very remote, sounds like a case of brain worms, where are you getting your information from?? It doesn't work that way. No one has legal right to squat on your rural property in California, that's called trespassing. I know because I live in California in the redwoods, it's extremely rural as is this property.
@@dannydonnelly8345 so ? is the cops gonna deal with them? Do you have the right to shoot invaders? it is california after all. Businessman and Landlord right are not "protected"
Yes I wish my husband been a truck driver had to be close to I-5 These parcels not to far from me . Wish for year round creek. Familiar with Cottonwood Creek. Have almost 25 acres. Flat as a pancake good views good cell phone service. On ridge so I am the unofficial fire watch.
I live in NorCal and its a beautiful state with many diverse areas...unfortunately the politics of California has been anything but accomodating to private property rights, especially for people in the middle class
I would buy this if not for it being in CA. I grew up in Yuba City and I have family in Chico, this would be perfect for me to retire and build on. But not with the liberals in charge.
Thanks for leaving both positive and negative comments on. Am new to this type of real estate. Makes for good for questions I didn't know about. I am getting interested in this type of property.
Absolutely. One can also get a good feel for how people are feeling/venting. Lots of emotions about CA. People like to vent their frustrations online and let loose. It's almost like the comment area can be therapy for some.
I was born and raised in the eastbay area we excaped in 2005 Tobe able to enjoy retirement this property brings back great memories about deer hunting trips from the 60s as a kid
@@ltx383 1960s he was probably republican back then before they went far leftarded. In 1960 Nixon won the popular vote in california against Kennedy. But the fact he stayed until 2005 suggests he probably turned liberal when he became and adult.
Nice property! Unfortunately, it’s in California! The property taxes alone would bankrupt you. Not to mention Fire insurance ( if you can even get it ), and the handful of other taxes and regulations that will screw you! Good luck building anything on the land! Better off buying 3x the size of property in Tennessee for less and be able to afford and build a structure if you’re choosing.
1) LOL 1 to 1.25% of the assessed value per year. You must be thinking LA or the like. Way different here. CA is a big state and it isn't all the same contrary to what most people are commenting on here. 2) Sales tax, 7.25% lowest in the state. 3) Red or Blue? Red here. 4) Fire insurance is offered by the state/government if there are no commercial entities offing it.
Great question!! You could get lime disease here but most of the deer ticks are further north up I-5 an hour or 2. Mostly dog ticks around Shasta County, those do not carry lime disease. And to get lime, you must be bit by a deer tick that has already fed on a mouse etc. If you are the first meal, then they can't give you lime. This is according to our local specialist when I asked details about it specifically.
Limited AG is the zoning. Did you watch the video? You can't legally live in an RV on a property. You could dump the sewage at anytime. Redding, CA is the nearest city. Takes about 50 minutes to get to the huge Holiday Market on Placer St. from the property. You need high ground clearance at this time as they haven't re-graded the road yet.
@@MountainValleyRealEstatelmao! "you cant live in an RV on a property" - youre saying you cant live how you want on your own property? you people are such slaves
There is a road maint. of $260 per year. There are some light CCRS. If you contact me via my website from below the property description I can send you more info. Deposit? After you close escrow you can use it. Yes, a cabin is good. Some people do visit with their RV.
Beautiful property, love the abundance of animals. I’m retired and looking for small acreage up in the hills. I’ll keep watching your channel I might just find something. Hey wait, did I just see Bigfoot?! lol
From the post (property line) down all the way to the creek…that is the 40 acres. Right? That means the dirt road (public) would separate the lot into 2. If that so…no really privacy. I guess that’s one of the reasons it’s so cheap. 2nd question: How far is this lot from the big city…like Fresno, Sacramento, Oroville…this could give me an idea. I will also google Redding but this message is written as I am watching. Thanks
At property line post, Lot 266 post the property goes left to Cottonwood Creek and right from the post for about 1/2 mile. There are 3 lots after this one on that road and 2 lots look vacant. But yes, the road goes through the property as you can see on the aerial image so someone could drive by the area if you built there. You could also put a fence or the like for more privacy if you wanted or build a culvert/driveway or whatever it takes to get across seasonal rocky creek and its steep topography then uphill to the mostly gentle top of the property with even better views. But that would cost some cash. This are is about 30 minutes from Redding, CA. Add another 20 to get to the back of the area where the property is located.
Riparian Water Rights: Here are some of the details from CA Water Resources... Riparian rights usually come with owning a parcel of land that is adjacent to a source of water. With statehood, California adopted the English common law familiar to the eastern seaboard; such law also included the riparian doctrine. A riparian right entitles the landowner to use a correlative share of the water flowing past his or her property. Riparian rights do not require permits, licenses, or government approval, but they apply only to the water which would naturally flow in the stream. Riparian rights do not entitle a water use to divert water to storage in a reservoir for use in the dry season or to use water on land outside of the watershed. Riparian rights remain with the property when it changes hands, although parcels severed from the adjacent water source generally lose their right to the water.
The T.A.P. really took a nose dive after the early 2000’s when everybody from everywhere bought property out there to grow weed and trashed it. Was good buck, turkey, quail and pig hunting until about 2005. Still plenty of ground squirrels. You could grab up land for $500/acre not too long before that. Good job getting your vid in Spring and not showing the road in haha.
I have plenty of videos of 40 acres out here during the summer. There area still plenty of animals out here, I have/had 2 recently with lots of pigs. Prices of everything go up over time. I have one that is 40 acres for $40k with some trash on it but nothing wrong with the property.
@MountainValleyRealEstate I'm just joshing ya. Your vid doesn't quite make out what it is out there though. A lot of wells hit sulphur or arsenic out there if they hit any water at all. The moss backs really don't like outsiders. Creek frontage means you really better know what to do when you encounter rattlesnakes, cuz when May-November rolls around and everything is bone dry, the only water around this parcel is the middle fork and it's a rattler magnet. Every chunk of slate very well might have one coiled in its shade. And those roads turn to snot in the rain or snow. But somebody's gotta try to sell it. I know a few people that grew up out there and some of them still live in there, so it's doable, but it certainly takes a certain type to make it work. You should talk to somebody about helping you get some gold out of that seasonal creek. If you take a digging bar and lift/pry some of the slate and pan the sediment between the slabs, you'll get into some gold. Would be nice to have that in your vid. Good luck.
U need to FIND a group of likeminded people. That's the WAY to do it. Trust me. There's strength in numbers. It's not even about "taking" care of each other, it's that extra set of eyes and ears that can make your life "out" here a lot easier.
Thank you! I'm sorry you don't like CA. If it's the governor, he won't be here forever but the land will. The property and sales taxes here are low. Property taxes are 1 to 1.25% and sales tax 7.25%.
17:20 looks like that tree was painted, it’s just a strange tree found in wilderness. This whole place is absolute wilderness and very picturesque. I’m surprised it’s being sold as property and not preserved.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate I definitely would but have no means to do so because constantly moving around and of course money. Maybe in the future. I’m just surprised there’s untouched wilderness with many varied wildlife that’s not a national park.
Which tree? The Manzanita? Its bark is very thin and red. Any yellow grass is a dry area and most all the ground will turn yellow by next month or so depending on the rains.
😂 I live in California I'm so happy that you folks and folks like you segregate themselves based on ignorance. Wherever it is you live please continue to live there. Because you don't like the politics of the governor you base your decision on things like that? You are aware that we have a democracy and elections and that nobody stays the governor indefinitely right? But whatever it is you believe go ahead and keep on believing it like I said I'm happy that folks of your persuasion choose not to live in the great state of California!
I live in Los Angeles area , I totally agreed about Gruesome, plus if you go near by city for supplies, if any homeless close by take over your cabin you will have hard time to get them out of that cabin. California has most mass up laws in the nation.
You don't need a jeep get to the accessible 1 to 1.5 acre part but you do need to improve the steep slope down to Rocky Creek and back up before you could drive a jeep or atv the rest of the way up to the level view top.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate good idea. I saw a bobcat just 40 feet away in Arizona. They are beauties, but I've seen how viscous they can maul folks in videos.
Everyone's over 50 and trying to figure out how to move out of the city but can't physically run a homestead or off grid lifestyle. Thats from 40yrs. Of back breaking jobs, HELLO ?
just curious what you all do for a living to be able to live far away from jobs. i lived up above oak run on phillips rd offgrid and had to commute every day and it wore me and my truck out. Most of my neighbors were ranchers, pot growers and a few retired former city dwellers fed up with civilization
I'll start. I'm in real estate and Bigfoot and I survive off the land by eating the local grass, some berries and the occasional figs. LOL Seriously though, the cost of living here is a lot lower than if you lived in say Sacramento or the like. You make a bit less here but it also costs less, property taxes, sales tax, etc.
This is amazing but the AIR quality is a question. The fires which now plague the west are seriously bad for health. It’s so sad. I would dive in a piece of land like this. I would live in a cave or a sod shack! It’s so beautiful. I have asthma though and the air pollution would be so dangerous for me.
Lots of people live off grid, you do need solar of course. Yes, you need septic, and a water source. Off grid means, no public utility to the lot or you are not using it if there is. You want a place you can live legally without any improvements. I think maybe Nevada or more desolate places where they don't have many people there.
Rocky Creek runs through the property, the other creek is the border of the property. No you are not trespassing if you go to the creek or are in the creek.
What are property taxes like for this lot now, and when it is improve. Is there an estimate? Genuine question, I'm from Colorado and am looking for lots of acres. Never considered CA.
A very successful land developer told me is to take pictures/sell land after rains as everything is green and beautiful & buy land in summer heat when its brown and dry and no one wants to be there. Creator knows the secret too :) Beautiful place ~
Thank you, that does show it at its best but I just list it when the seller wants to sell. You will see brown grass in upcoming property videos as they get listed on the open market. But, I am no land developer. lol

You would think by your comments that no one has ever built an off grid home🤣😂🤣 So you don’t think that propane cannot be delivered to an area right by the road, with it piped to the house? That’s a lot cheaper than trying to get a municipal gas line to a remote property. This is definitely for a DIY’r, but everything I mentioned is fairly inexpensive. There are remote off grid cabins all over the country. How do you think they do it?
By the way. Landlocked land have easements for ingress-it is called an easement by necessity. Your dad should have contacted an attorney, not the neighbors.
@@emmas1082 - LOL! Clearly my logic was lost on you. My only point was a little caution when buying a property sight unseen. Go see it. Make sure you can drive or walk to it. No I haven’t seen this property, looks great! But it’s in California so know that now it’s unimproved land, put a house, cabin or whatever on it, add solar, drill a well, put in septic, and now it’s not unimproved and the taxes just might make you rethink living in California when they go from $87 a year to $11,972 a year. All I’m saying is learn from others mistakes. Oh, and no more coffee for you!
So many negative people in these comments with ZERO experience living off grid... This property is BEAUTIFUL
Pretty crazy how much negativity there is.
No county in California would sign off permits allowing you to build off grid, with rainwater catchment and self contained sewage system. Nice try.
Yes it’s beautiful. But as one who lives off grid, insurance is outrageous. If you’re not worried about the cost of replacing your home if a fire should occur, go for it.
@@AbeTheFakeSage I agree... Everyone is programmed to think in a pessimistic way... When do you see optimistic news reports? It's always something to be aware of or fear...
Our government has been successful at keeping it's population in a constant state of fear and not living in the moment and just enjoy it for what it is...
but the state is fucked up,i know,i live here.
Stunning property and I love all the wild life! As far as a structure, I'd dig out part the side of the hill (if that isn't all rock) and build my cabin or small home in two levels. That section in the hillside would have a nice even temp year round. If that couldn't be done, I'd haul a tiny house up there and set it on a flat section. In CA, you have to take steps to fireproof your structure. Insurance will be outrageous if you go that route... Taxes were not cheap when I lived in CA years ago, not sure about rural real estate now.
I'd live off-grid 100% with solar, propane, satellite, and generator backup. If the water in the creek is not accessible, I'd install a rain catchment system to dump into one of those huge water tanks and truck in/ haul what I need.
As far as gardening, since it's likely rocky ground, I'd install a lot of raised beds in a fenced area to grow my food. That would be my dream on such a beautiful property... if I were younger. I'm too old to start over, but I still enjoy envisioning myself there.
👍You know how to do it!! Sweet. Property taxes are just 1 to 1.25% of the assessed value per year.
Your right, dig into the hill and build with cement blocks, just remove fire material like trees and weed eat the grass around home, of course a metal roof. You can do a well with solar pump to holding tank and gravity feed to home. I'm just to old also75, and slowing down.
I was looking at this property about 4 years ago along with another one in this old time conservation subdivision , the other one finally sold before I could got a chance to see it .
Looks like a lot of folks let their cabins get run down or they leave trailers that rot away on the lots . This spot gets into the 110 to 115 degree territory in the summer woth Cottonwood Creek just being scattered pools in dry years . The pictures of so called trout are really Sacramento Suckerfish or better known as Squaw fish . Those fish wipe out trout redds and should be tossed on the bank for the night critters to eat . I get the feeling that people are selling their lots here pretty cheap for several reasons . The summer heat possible nosey association members dictating what you can do on your land and lack of community . I would like to talk to the locals and see what life is like up there . I spent hours trying to envision what I could do on this lot but I found some others more conducive to my wants and needs .
It's nice to see it from a first person perspective like this . If I had this property I would deepen both creeks in spots and mysterious rocks would appear in the creek to retain a little more water in tbe dry months without damming it .
Yes, the creeks can dry up if we get into droughts. The photo of the fish is definitely a a trout, I took that photo of him from a nearby lot I sold and from Cottonwood Creek. This trout is missing the sucker mouth to be a sucker fish. Look at both online and you'll see the difference. You should attend one of the potlucks, the people that collect the road dues are the opposite of nosey from my experience. Some lots are more expensive than others out here, depends on many factors, how much usable land, does it have Cottonwood Creek on it, and is there a way to drive into the lot. I'm glad you found the video useful. That was the goal and thank you for the comments.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate
Thanks for your reply . I think the photos of the fish I saw was from updated pictures from about a year after the initial listing . Looked at so many properties back then and still do . I will look at the pictures again but the fish I saw had a different dorsal fin shape than a trout but a friend of mine has caught a trout in the main Cottonwood Creek , I think this is the South fork .
No first property I saw here was beautiful with a small pond on it but somehow one of the owners put a barbed wire fence through part of it . Only 45 grand in 2019 , got sold in 2020 I think . I had aspirations of pond building at the bottom of that land but it wasn't to be .
Doing construction or modifying a water tributary in CA. That's risky. Hoping you didn't have a neighbor that would make a complaint.
It all looks fantastic is the spring. There are so many better properties available at higher elevations that stay green all year around even during drought years and with paved roads, municipal water, and power, tall trees and no HOA. Cottonwood Creek at only 500 ft elevation is an arid desert in the summer months.
Yes, there are always other properties with other attributes, better or worse. The price of this and those properties will also be in relation to what they have or don't have to offer. The attributes you are talking about will add quite a bit to be able to purchase the property. All depends on what you want to use the property for. Higher elevation will have snow and thus access is more difficult, may need to build to a snow load roof spec etc. There are always tradeoffs and it depend on the buyer and what they are looking for and how much they can afford.
This is a good "bang for the buck" property, you can shoot on your property, it has Cottonwood Creek, there is some easy to get to area of the property and it is away from the city. A lot of people buy these lots as a getaway from the bigger cities. It does suite that need very well.
If I was selling a lot in upper Oregon or Washington people would say its so green and lush all year, then someone would say ya but it's always gloomy and rainy outside and the sun hardly ever comes out.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate
I am finding 3 to 4 thousand feet in elevation is about the sweet spot . Some snow but about 5 to 10 degrees cooler in heatwaves .
We lived on a beautiful 3 acre country property on Cottonwood creek for 15 years, just outside the town of Cottonwood. I enjoyed the country living but the summers are brutal with temps of 100 and above for 3 months per year and often reaching 110 and 115. Temps consistently reach 90s by May and will not come down from that until November and it's getting worse each year. You cannot survive without AC and with a brand new unit our electric bills were averaging $500 per month, that was with thermostat set to 80 degrees. The tiered electric rates in Shasta county went up to 36 cents per KWH for the necessary usage to cool a 2200 sq ft house. We left in 2016 and are so thankful, in the last 15 years there have been devastating fires in that region. We now live off grid in Baja Mexico and the weather is far better here!
Nice. I would have thought that Mexico would be a pretty bad damp heat that you can't sweat off and being so close to the equator line you get the most intense sun rays. I would take the dry heat any day over Mexico or Texas.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate The summer weather in Shasta county is so bad that I often marveled that anyone could live there prior to the era of air conditioning. It's literally life threatening without AC and it got worse every year. For those skeptical of global warming a few years in Shasta county will change your mind. I am quite familiar with lonely Platina road, my advice is to continue west on 36 until reaching the Lost Coast which is a wonderful place to live off grid with very cool temps yet there is a banana belt effect as well there in the King range.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate Mexico is not close to the equator. Big variation in temps of course. Best right on the Pacific or up in the mountains.
Wouldn't it be better at this elevation (1300')? Yes the valley is notoriously hot. But once you're set up off grid in this beautiful place, you don't have to move much. Just sit on the porch with your fan. Coast nearby is good, but can be the opposite effect with dreary summers. Either place could be a challenge if you want services.
@@pcatfulright over the border from San Diego pretty damn nice year round weather I bet.

I live in C.A. but there are some things people need to know. The woods in C.A. are on a 7-10 year burn cycle. This is evidenced by trees that have evolved along these lines. You can build up there but its gonna burn down 100%. For this reason don't expect fire insurance at any price. Getting electricity up there is problematic to say the least. Again fires which are often caused by electrical lines. At great cost to PG&E who you will be forced to deal with. There's quite a of bit of gold up in them there hills. But you can't really prospect. If they catch up up there with so much as a battery power sluice your chopped liver. Good luck getting a road and running water. No you cannot just take the creek water thanks to the diminishing salmon runs. There is a reason land up there is cheap as sin. Its worthless, that is unless your plan is to grow a ton of pot.
We have $300k to spend, but not in a place that burns all the time. We just want to be away from the rat race of the city.
@@Biker65 You might like Washington state. Look around the olympic national forest on the Seattle side. I used to summer up there. Land is cheap. Nobody cares if you develop. Only thing is it's very wet most of the year. You need to heavily consider drainage when looking at properties, especially old ones, or planning to build.

That is why the globalists want it for themselves!!!
Rural land in CA is much cheaper than people think. Cheaper than land in the midwest because in the midwest the land can be used for farming, so there is a clear value to it based on the revenue from crops. Whereas this type of rocky, hilly land in CA can't be used for much. Just kind of hanging out. And it can be costly to develop since it is rocky, and there's also wild fire risk. So it's not exactly what it seems.
California taxes are wonderful

You could get lime disease here but most of the deer ticks are further north up I-5 an hour or 2. Mostly dog ticks around Shasta County, those do not carry lime disease. And to get lime, you must be bit by a deer tick that has already fed on a mouse etc. If you are the first meal, then they can't give you lime.

Hi is this still available? I live in Sacramento and looking to buy land in different places of California
Yes, it is for sale.
From the post (property line) down all the way to the creek…that is the 40 acres. Right?
That means the dirt road (public) would separate the lot into 2.
If that so…no really privacy.
I guess that’s one of the reasons it’s so cheap.
2nd question: How far is this lot from the big city…like Fresno, Sacramento, Oroville…this could give me an idea.
I will also google Redding but this message is written as I am watching.
Thanks
At property line post, Lot 266 post the property goes left to Cottonwood Creek and right from the post for about 1/2 mile. There are 3 lots after this one on that road and 2 lots look vacant. But yes, the road goes through the property as you can see on the aerial image so someone could drive by the area if you built there. You could also put a fence or the like for more privacy if you wanted or build a culvert/driveway or whatever it takes to get across seasonal rocky creek and its steep topography then uphill to the mostly gentle top of the property with even better views. But that would cost some cash.
This are is about 30 minutes from Redding, CA. Add another 20 to get to the back of the area where the property is located.

Water rights?
Riparian Water Rights: Here are some of the details from CA Water Resources...
Riparian rights usually come with owning a parcel of land that is adjacent to a source of water. With statehood, California adopted the English common law familiar to the eastern seaboard; such law also included the riparian doctrine.
A riparian right entitles the landowner to use a correlative share of the water flowing past his or her property. Riparian rights do not require permits, licenses, or government approval, but they apply only to the water which would naturally flow in the stream. Riparian rights do not entitle a water use to divert water to storage in a reservoir for use in the dry season or to use water on land outside of the watershed. Riparian rights remain with the property when it changes hands, although parcels severed from the adjacent water source generally lose their right to the water.
You need deep pockets if you develop any wilderness property, expect 30 years to pass before you can break even

The T.A.P. really took a nose dive after the early 2000’s when everybody from everywhere bought property out there to grow weed and trashed it. Was good buck, turkey, quail and pig hunting until about 2005. Still plenty of ground squirrels. You could grab up land for $500/acre not too long before that. Good job getting your vid in Spring and not showing the road in haha.
I have plenty of videos of 40 acres out here during the summer. There area still plenty of animals out here, I have/had 2 recently with lots of pigs. Prices of everything go up over time. I have one that is 40 acres for $40k with some trash on it but nothing wrong with the property.
@MountainValleyRealEstate I'm just joshing ya. Your vid doesn't quite make out what it is out there though. A lot of wells hit sulphur or arsenic out there if they hit any water at all. The moss backs really don't like outsiders. Creek frontage means you really better know what to do when you encounter rattlesnakes, cuz when May-November rolls around and everything is bone dry, the only water around this parcel is the middle fork and it's a rattler magnet. Every chunk of slate very well might have one coiled in its shade. And those roads turn to snot in the rain or snow. But somebody's gotta try to sell it. I know a few people that grew up out there and some of them still live in there, so it's doable, but it certainly takes a certain type to make it work. You should talk to somebody about helping you get some gold out of that seasonal creek. If you take a digging bar and lift/pry some of the slate and pan the sediment between the slabs, you'll get into some gold. Would be nice to have that in your vid. Good luck.
It’s paradise to me!
U need to FIND a group of likeminded people. That's the WAY to do it. Trust me. There's strength in numbers. It's not even about "taking" care of each other, it's that extra set of eyes and ears that can make your life "out" here a lot easier.
Are these track still available? You said their are 4 tracks of 40 acres each? How much If someone were wanting to purchase all four tracts?
I'm not sure what you mean by 4 tracks. This is one 42 acre parcel for sale. No adjoining properties for sale at the moment.
This perfect for a little getaway spot away from the city! I would build small cabins and Air B n B!
There is risk of fires. And to develop the land would be very expensive.
have a lot of jingle for permits
Beautiful
Yes, it very much is. Thank you for the comment!
Wow! Just stunning! But, it's California, in no way shape or form! Tks for sharing anyway!
Thank you! I'm sorry you don't like CA. If it's the governor, he won't be here forever but the land will. The property and sales taxes here are low. Property taxes are 1 to 1.25% and sales tax 7.25%.
17:20 looks like that tree was painted, it’s just a strange tree found in wilderness.
This whole place is absolute wilderness and very picturesque. I’m surprised it’s being sold as property and not preserved.
You could buy it and "Preserve" it.
@@MountainValleyRealEstate I definitely would but have no means to do so because constantly moving around and of course money. Maybe in the future.
I’m just surprised there’s untouched wilderness with many varied wildlife that’s not a national park.
Is it normal for that tree to have no bark on it? And the yellow grass?
Which tree? The Manzanita? Its bark is very thin and red. Any yellow grass is a dry area and most all the ground will turn yellow by next month or so depending on the rains.
That animal is a Male Gray Fox
Awesome!
It's California no way I would think about buying anything in California It's a mess
I agree. Especially with Gruesome
😂 I live in California I'm so happy that you folks and folks like you segregate themselves based on ignorance. Wherever it is you live please continue to live there. Because you don't like the politics of the governor you base your decision on things like that? You are aware that we have a democracy and elections and that nobody stays the governor indefinitely right? But whatever it is you believe go ahead and keep on believing it like I said I'm happy that folks of your persuasion choose not to live in the great state of California!
I live in Los Angeles area , I totally agreed about Gruesome, plus if you go near by city for supplies, if any homeless close by take over your cabin you will have hard time to get them out of that cabin. California has most mass up laws in the nation.
Come on man, that’s true “only” 99.99999999999997% of the time. smFh
California isn't a mess. 4 largest economy in the world. Still going strong. We've got our issues like most places, definitely not falling apart
Democrat shit taxes on anyone that is suckered into moving to California !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there capability of running a jeep around it or is it to hard for even a 4x4 to make around.?
You don't need a jeep get to the accessible 1 to 1.5 acre part but you do need to improve the steep slope down to Rocky Creek and back up before you could drive a jeep or atv the rest of the way up to the level view top.
Walk, are you people that lazy? That’s why it’s called nature everybody everybody wants to destroy it.!
How close is a Walmart to the parcels? You would have to stock up on groceries. Stocking up could attract bobcats and bears. Beautiful area though.
Probably an hour. Get a dog, that should scare them off. 👣
@@MountainValleyRealEstate good idea. I saw a bobcat just 40 feet away in Arizona. They are beauties, but I've seen how viscous they can maul folks in videos.
Sorry, wrong state.
Sweet property 👍👍
To bad it's in Cali ☹️
Thank you. Just like wine or cars, there is a state for everyone.
Why? 40 million like it
Which area in CA is better to buy for farming and also in cheap price
This area is the best bang for the buck area. All 40 acres and now power. $50K to 70K on average.
Everyone's over 50 and trying to figure out how to move out of the city but can't physically run a homestead or off grid lifestyle. Thats from 40yrs. Of back breaking jobs, HELLO ?
Y Hello there..... I'm here loud and LandSquatched. 👣
SO MUCH REGULATIONS IN CALIFORNIA 😢
Too bad its in California. You could not pay me to go.
What a magical place❤love it!
Me too. I love that area!
Geesh it's like Eden ❤ I'm curious of who owns this! It's so special. Thanks!
just curious what you all do for a living to be able to live far away from jobs. i lived up above oak run on phillips rd offgrid and had to commute every day and it wore me and my truck out. Most of my neighbors were ranchers, pot growers and a few retired former city dwellers fed up with civilization
I'll start. I'm in real estate and Bigfoot and I survive off the land by eating the local grass, some berries and the occasional figs. LOL
Seriously though, the cost of living here is a lot lower than if you lived in say Sacramento or the like. You make a bit less here but it also costs less, property taxes, sales tax, etc.
Too bad it is in California.
Too bad you’re a tool
Had to sell our beautiful cabin in the Sierras. Fire insurance went through the roof, couldn’t afford it.
How close to the highway and gas n stores? Looking for 40 acres minimum with access to water solar etc.
It is about 45ish minutes back to town where the huge Holiday Market is.
This is amazing but the AIR quality is a question. The fires which now plague the west are seriously bad for health. It’s so sad. I would dive in a piece of land like this. I would live in a cave or a sod shack! It’s so beautiful. I have asthma though and the air pollution would be so dangerous for me.
I totally understand. Thank you for looking and commenting.
also need a perc test if you plan to build, that can be expensive so check the laws in the area you are in.
They are about $1500
Where can you live offgrid legally in california? Last i checked every county requires septic, a water well and a house on a foundation
Lots of people live off grid, you do need solar of course. Yes, you need septic, and a water source. Off grid means, no public utility to the lot or you are not using it if there is.
You want a place you can live legally without any improvements. I think maybe Nevada or more desolate places where they don't have many people there.
My friend I like your content ...but you should put on map how close-far are the towns to the location for sale
Nice looking land, I bet the permits to build are outrageous but what do I know
You can always ask the Shasta County Building Department what the costs would be.
Are you trespassing by those creeks or is that part of the property? I can’t tell by that reflection cell phone you’re showing.
Rocky Creek runs through the property, the other creek is the border of the property. No you are not trespassing if you go to the creek or are in the creek.
I used to go up there with my friends that had property there for 25 years on 268
Sweet, that is awesome!
We lived in Massachusetts and had sasquatch there! Hugh!
Yes, he is very mobile. 👣
not a place you want to retire for sure, how are you going to climb those montains getting old? where do you get your food supply?
ATV or your side by side. Redding is not far away, not a problem at all.
What are property taxes like for this lot now, and when it is improve. Is there an estimate? Genuine question, I'm from Colorado and am looking for lots of acres. Never considered CA.
It is 1% to 1.25% of the assessed value per year now and when you improve it. At a $60,000 assessed value it would be about $600 for the year.
Looks like a great spot to build an off grid cabin with solar and hopefully a well. It certainly doesn't look that green year round though
No, not year round greenness. It's all worth it though for the late winter, spring, and early summer.
Wow, this is so beautiful
