Land for Sale in Chilcoot, California

YOUR LOST SIERRA FRESH START Welcome to 1334 Carmen Rd, 20 acres of open meadow, scattered pines, and creek frontage in the Frenchman Cove area of Chilcoot, with Frenchman Lake just up the valley and Plumas National Forest all around. The groundwork for your mountain dream is already in place. A cleared building pad, block retaining wall, and propane tank sit on a former homesite, set against a sheltered hillside with sweeping views across the meadow to the rocky peaks beyond. Carmen Rd runs right through the property, and fencing with pipe gates already lines the pasture. A creek winds along the southern edge, bordered by willows that glow gold every fall. Build a custom cabin, a full-time mountain home, a weekend basecamp, or a horse property with room for a barn, shop, and all your toys. Zoned R-20 by Plumas County (buyer to verify building plans with the county). Here, the seasons set the pace. Summer brings trout fishing, boating, waterskiing, paddleboarding, and swimming on Frenchman Lake's 21 miles of shoreline, plus hiking, mountain biking, and camping throughout the forest. In winter, trade the boat for a snowmobile, cross-country skis, or an ice fishing rod. Explore the sheer cliffs of Little Last Chance Canyon and the Dixie Valley backroads, cast for trophy trout at Lake Davis, and tee off at Grizzly Ranch in Portola. Chilcoot and Loyalton are close for supplies, and Reno is about an hour away. This is your chance to own 20 acres of meadow, creek, and forest in one of the most scenic corners of Plumas County, and to build the Lost Sierra lifestyle exactly the way you want it.
