Improved Residential Land for Sale in Portola, California
5684 Iron Horse Dr, Portola, CA 96122
Hidden among tall pines in the heart of the Lost Sierra, this charming mountain cabin feels like a secret worth keeping. Morning light spills across meadow views, afternoons drift by to the sound of a seasonal creek, and nights are spent beside the fire beneath an endless canopy of stars and Milky Way skies. The cozy studio-style cabin with a full bathroom and kitchen is warm and inviting, with a wood stove, propane heat, and a simple, comfortable layout that makes every stay feel effortless. A separate bunkhouse with its own bathroom offers space for guests, creative retreats, or quiet weekends away. Set on a spacious parcel with a circular driveway, barn, outdoor firepit, and room to expand, this property is beautifully positioned and exceptionally well priced--an ideal opportunity for buyers stepping into the market or those dreaming of an attainable second-home escape. With metal roofing, upgraded insulation, a private well, septic, and owned propane tanks, it offers peace of mind alongside rustic charm. Just about an hour from Reno or Truckee, and close to Lake Davis and the Sierra Buttes, this is a place where time slows, skies feel bigger, and mountain living becomes wonderfully within reach.
