1361 Taylor Road

Newcastle, CA 95658

Tucked into the rolling Placer County foothills of Newcastle, 1361 Taylor Rd is a rare self-sustaining retreat on 1.7 acres where modern infrastructure meets a deep connection to the natural world. From the moment you pass through the reinforced metal gate, you know this place is different. The centerpiece is a stunning 66,000-gallon pond, 11 feet deep, fed by a rock waterfall and maintained with biological filtration and ozone treatment: no chlorine, no chemicals, just clean, clear water that the owners use as a natural pool. Swimming here feels like slipping into a mountain lake surrounded by mature shade trees and the sound of water over stone. Beyond the water, the land produces: an organic garden and a mature fruit orchard with mandarins, pomegranates, passion fruit, oranges, ruby red grapefruit, and newer cherry, pear, avocado, and plum trees, all supported by a 30 GPM well and gravity-fed irrigation year-round. A fully paid-off 10 KW solar system, a 2,500-gallon backup water tank, and a 1,500-gallon septic system make this property as self-reliant as it gets. The home was fully rebuilt in 2007 with copper plumbing, spray foam insulation, a tankless water heater, and fine-mesh gutter guards. For those who need power, a 400-amp three-phase main panel with four subpanels and an additional 200-amp breaker opens the door to a workshop, barn, ADU, or serious hobby operation. Located within the Del Oro High School boundary with easy freeway access. Properties like this do not come around often; come see it and you will understand why.
