About this property

Creek-Front Private Retreat | 64.66 Acres | Fiddletown, CaliforniaThere are properties that require imagination to see their potential, and then there are properties that make their potential impossible to miss. This extraordinary 64.66-acre creek-front parcel near historic Fiddletown and the world-renowned Shenandoah Valley Wine Country falls firmly into the second category. From the moment you arrive, the combination of natural beauty, thoughtful preparation, and sheer scale communicates something that experienced land buyers recognize immediately: this is the That Lives and BreathesSixty-four acres is a number. What it feels like on this particular piece of ground is something altogether different. The property rolls and opens across varied foothill terrain - meadows giving way to treed draws, elevated ridgelines offering long views across the surrounding countryside, and throughout it all, the quiet, steady presence of a year-round creek threading its way through the creek is not merely a amenity. It is the heartbeat of the property. Year-round water features of this kind are among the most coveted and increasingly scarce assets in California rural land ownership. The creek adds sensory richness - the sound of moving water, the lush riparian vegetation along its banks, the wildlife it draws throughout the seasons - while simultaneously enhancing the land's agricultural potential, recreational appeal, and long-term investment value. Properties with reliable, year-round surface water at this acreage, in this location, simply do not come available the creek, the land itself is diverse and deeply usable. Rolling terrain provides natural variation and visual interest, while open areas offer ample room for horses, livestock, gardens, orchards, or any number of rural pursuits. Mature trees punctuate the landscape, providing shade, habitat, and the kind of established natural character that takes generations to develop. This is land that rewards not just a single vision, but the full range of possibilities that 64 acres of well-watered foothill ground can -Ready From Day OneFor buyers who have spent time searching for rural land, the phrase ""build-ready"" carries enormous weight - because truly build-ready properties are far rarer than listings suggest. This property earns that description honestly and completely.A building pad has been prepared and positioned with intention, sited to capture sweeping views of the surrounding foothill landscape. This is not a flat spot cleared for convenience - it is a homesite chosen for the experience it will deliver every single day. Morning coffee with those views. Evening light painting the hills. The sense of arrival that comes from approaching a home that feels exactly right in its that compelling setting lies a foundation of practical infrastructure that transforms this from a beautiful piece of land into a genuinely actionable development opportunity:Power is available on the property - eliminating one of the most costly and time-consuming utility challenges in rural development. A private well is already in place - providing a secured, independent water source that supports both residential use and the broader needs of a working rural property. And perhaps most significantly, a standard septic permit has been approved for a 4-bedroom home - a milestone in the entitlement process that requires engineering, percolation testing, county review, and approval, all of which has already been completed on your , these three infrastructure components - power, well, and approved septic permit - represent a substantial investment of time and money that a new owner simply does not have to make. The groundwork is done. The approvals are in place. What remains is the most rewarding part: designing and building the home you've always envisioned.A Setting Made for the Life You've Been PlanningWhether your vision is refined or still taking shape, this property offers the physical canvas and the practical infrastructure to support an exceptionally wide range of rural lifestyle those dreaming of a private country estate, the prepared building pad, sweeping views, and year-round creek create a setting of genuine distinction - one where architecture and landscape can work together to produce something truly special. For equestrian enthusiasts, the combination of open acreage, rolling terrain, established trails potential, and reliable water makes this an ideal horse property with room for barn, pasture, and riding without ever leaving your own land. For those drawn to hobby farming or agricultural pursuits, the land's water resources, open areas, and acreage provide the foundation for gardens, orchards, small-scale livestock operations, or the kind of self-sufficient rural lifestyle that more and more buyers are actively seeking. And for those simply in search of a private weekend and vacation retreat, the creek, the views, the space, and the proximity to world-class wine country make this a destination property in every sense of the Best Address in Gold CountryLocation is the one thing that cannot be changed, added, or improved - and this property's location is exceptional. Fiddletown, one of Amador County's most characterful and historic small communities, is just minutes away, offering that rare small-town atmosphere that feels authentic rather than manufactured. The community's deep roots in California's Gold Rush history and its connection to the surrounding agricultural landscape give it a sense of place that resonates with buyers seeking something broadly, the Shenandoah Valley Wine Country - home to dozens of award-winning wineries, tasting rooms, and farm-to-table dining experiences - is practically at your doorstep. Amador County's wine scene has earned national and international recognition, attracting visitors from across California and beyond, and living within minutes of it is one of the genuine privileges of foothill life in this broader area offers hiking, fishing, horseback riding, and the full suite of outdoor recreation that the Sierra Foothills corridor provides, along with convenient access to the Gold Country's beloved communities - Sutter Creek, Jackson, Plymouth, and beyond - each offering its own collection of restaurants, shops, and community peace and genuine community. Natural beauty and wine country sophistication. Privacy and accessibility. This property delivers all of it, without Opportunity This Complete Doesn't WaitCreek-front properties of this size, in this location, with this level of infrastructure already in place, are not a category with deep inventory. They appear rarely, attract serious attention when they do, and the best ones find new owners quickly. The combination of 64.66 acres, a year-round creek, an approved septic permit, an existing well, available power, and a prepared building site with views - all within minutes of the Shenandoah Valley - is genuinely your architect, your contractor, your horses, and your plans. Everything else is already here.

    Buyer checklist

    Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

    1. Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
    2. Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
    3. Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
    4. Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
    5. RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
    6. Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
    7. UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
    8. What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
