The world's getting louder, faster, and more chaotic -- and then there's Cottonwood Creek Farmhouse in Sierraville. Here, off-grid energy meets on-grid elegance. Vintage bones, modern systems, and a self-contained guest suite that flexes to fit your life. It's the kind of place you buy when you want to unplug -- but still keep your fiber-optic WiFi strong enough for a Zoom board meeting in Paris. This reimagined 1890s retreat sits on 1.13 private, creekside acres bordered by a year-round stream. A wide front porch welcomes you to slow down, while inside, whitewashed interiors, wide-plank floors, and artisan tile baths shine thanks to a full foundation-to-roof renovation. The attached private guest quarters offer their own kitchen, bath, and airy, high-ceilinged living space -- ideal for visiting friends and family, a creative studio, or multi-generational living. The property may be rented for 30 days or longer, and short-term rental permitting is possible in accordance with Sierra County regulations (buyer to verify eligibility). Outside, a sun-kissed meadow invites you to raise chickens, cultivate a garden, or simply enjoy the rural rhythm of the Lost Sierra. Boho charm meets modern practicality in a setting where life feels lighter. Home is occupied -- appointments kindly requested in advance for all showings.

Walk to Sierra Valley’s favorite Mexican cantina, a local coffee shop, the revived Globe Hotel, and bike to the legendary Sierra Hot Springs. Golfers can enjoy Whitehawk Ranch Golf Club, Nakoma Golf & Spa, and Graeagle Meadows nearby. Mountain bikers will love the renowned Mount Hough and Mills Peak Trail (near Graeagle), while scenic road cycling routes circle the Sierra Valley. And when town life calls, Truckee and Reno are just a beautiful drive from your front porch.
Boho charm meets practical, income‑friendly flexibility in the heart of the Lost Sierra.
