Welcome to Heidi Goldnugget, a unique 320 sq. ft. miner's cabin tucked away on nearly 3 acres at the end of a private mountain road in historic Dutch Flat. Built in 1972 in the valley of an old mining town, the cabin was thoughtfully designed to capture the feel of the Gold Rush era while offering the comforts needed for everyday enjoyment. Once featured in Apartment Therapy, this cozy retreat has been recently updated with a metal roof, fire-resistant siding, insulation, electrical/plumbing improvements, a water heater, water holding tank, and a new well pump. At the center of it all is a beautifully refurbished 1900 Ideal Clarion Parlor wood stove that adds warmth and character to the space. The property also includes a 112 sq. ft. tiny room that works well for occasional guests, creative space, or storage that looks over the permitted treehouse deck, complete with an outdoor sink, water, and a new electrical sub panel. Separated from the main cabin by a sturdy rustic gate, this private nook provides a peaceful spot to enjoy the surrounding forest and sunset views. There's also plenty of room for an RV, boat, outdoor equipment, or animals. Two storage sheds offer additional space for tools and gear, and an ample supply of firewood is ready for the winter months. Conveniently located near I-80 and the Tahoe mountains, you'll have easy access to skiing, hiking, fishing, boating, and other year-round recreation. Whether you're looking for a weekend escape, a full-time minimalist lifestyle, or a property with short-term rental potential, Heidi Goldnugget offers a special piece of Gold Country history in a remarkably private setting. Just a few minutes away is the Historic downtown of Dutch Flat, home to the 1852 Dutch Flat Hotel and its popular local restaurant and bar, making it easy to enjoy a night out before retreating back to the quiet of the cabin. So much History. A must See!
