Pollock Pines, CA 95726

Welcome to Inspiration Heights in Pollock Pines, California where storybook charm meets unmatched location. Why settle for cookie-cutter when you can have the most charming cottage style home looking for its next chapter! The cozy, 2 bedroom, 1 bath home is situated on a premium lot nestled by larger custom homes, great neighbors and no HOA. Pass the time on the quaint front porch while waiting for family or friends to pull their boat or RV into the circular driveway for a weekend of fun at the house and the lake. When it's time to BBQ, the back deck oversees the large yard and looks up at a sky full of stars framed by tall pines. Back inside the home, settle in around the new wood burning fireplace installed in 2022. A new water heater was installed summer, 2025, the roof was replaced in 2019 and for peace of mind, a generator transfer switch is on the home ready to engage. To boot you will have a partially finished basement for storage, play room, flex space that includes a door to the backyard and to the multi-purpose shed painted a sunny yellow to match the home. The attic space is begging for a spiral staircase to a loft or a new staircase built for outside access. Both areas offer immense potential to expand or renovate. For an established mountain classic home, the lot size is 13,068 of land and fresh air to spread your wings at an affordable price point. View the aerial photos to visualize adding a detached garage or whatever you may need or want. Location-wise, the home is minutes from Jenkinson Lake and the Safeway on the Pony Express Trail. The town has an independently owned and operated True Value Hardware, and several beloved neighborhood restaurants. The Placerville Food Co-op is a community-owned grocery with organic and local products just 19 minutes away. When you make this home yours, you get your private slice of heaven while knowing you live in a historic, long-standing community, with locally owned businesses, and nature as your backdrop. The home sits at a midway point between Sacramento International Airport to the west and then Lake Tahoe at 46 miles to the east. The home may be able to double as an idyllic short term rental for the solo travel adventurer or quiet, lowkey restful break for 4 or less when you aren't in town. But once you come, you may rarely want to leave. Schedule a private showing to experience the midway point between the city and the summit.
