PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:

On the banks of Butte Creek, the 40.5-acre Jerome Butte Homestead is history and opportunity all rolled into one!  Once the location of an active sawmill, Jerome is now just a dot on the map in rural Siskiyou County, and the perfect spot for your homestead or vacation retreat!  Butte Creek runs through this property and feeds a year-round pond with trout and bass.  There are two homes, plus an old cabin known as “Mr. Berry’s House”.  The main house has just had a beautiful remodel of the kitchen, living room and dining area since being listed!  It is an estimated 1700 +/- square feet with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms.  The open format kitchen/dining room/living room has brand new flooring, new cabinets, countertops and appliances, the bedroom floors have already been completed, and the windows have been updated throughout the house.  An attached two car garage with lots of storage and a workshop area, separate laundry room, and even a wood stove round out the main house.  There are lots of fruit trees on both sides of the creek in various stages of maturity from full grown to young trees with a whole life of production ahead of them.  There are three greenhouses on the property, the larger main one being approximately 20’ x 50’ and housing an assortment of tomatoes, squash, herbs, and more!  You will also find asparagus, rhubarb, berries, and plenty of space to add your own favorites in the fully fenced garden area.  As Butte Creek winds along past the garden you will find grassy banks and a nice meadow area before the property heads back along the base of Jerome Butte to the pond.  The second home was originally a cabin, remodeled in the 1960s, and currently used as a guest house.  With 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, this home is an estimated 1300 square feet including living room, kitchen, laundry room, and two unfinished rooms currently used for storage.  There are several outbuildings on the property including a root cellar and two out-houses from days gone by.  If you are looking for a northern California place to make your mark and create a home, maybe grow your own food or raise a few animals, the Jerome Butte Homestead is worth a look.  Give us a call for additional details!
