2.85 Acres ⋅ 98988137 MLS
Nearly 3 acres in the Idaho mountains--ready to build. This wooded lot in Star Ranch sits south of Placerville with easy access from both Hwy 21 and Hwy 55, making it a legitimate four-season property without the white-knuckle road conditions that come with most mountain land at this price. The site perc-tested and approved for up to a 6-bedroom home, so the hardest part of the due diligence is already done. Since purchasing in 2023, the owner has already put in a decomposed granite driveway--one less thing to sort out once you're ready to build. The lot runs level, drops into a gentle slope, then levels again--a natural setup for a daylight basement build. Ponderosa pines, mountain views, and county-maintained roads round out a package that's genuinely hard to find: raw Idaho mountain land that's actually buildable, accessible, and priced to move ($20k under assessed value!). Idaho Power is available. Proposed well and septic. No HOA--just recorded CC&Rs that keep the neighborhood clean without the overhead.
