About This Home

Perched above the fog line on 8.8 private acres with panoramic, sweeping views, this fully remodeled mid-century modern home is a rare gem in Newcastle's coveted mandarin-growing microclimate. A complete 2018 renovation transformed the property while honoring its original character. Every major system was updated all-new electrical, plumbing, and HVAC paired with premium finishes including rich walnut millwork, distinctive glass block accents, and iconic Sputnik lighting. The result is a thoughtfully upgraded home that feels timeless yet move-in ready. The main level features three bedrooms and two full baths, plus a convenient laundry room. An open-concept kitchen with upgraded walnut cabinetry flows seamlessly into a dramatic great room crowned by soaring 17-foot exposed-beam ceilings. An oversized front door, solid-core interior doors, and zero-step entry walkway enhance accessibility and flow. Low-E windows throughout, cement and stucco siding, and thoughtful design details further reduce maintenance and fire risk. Downstairs, a finished walk-out basement adds approximately 1,000 square feet of versatile space with its own full bath perfect for a private guest suite, studio, gym, or home theater. Additional infrastructure upgrades include central vacuum, a whole-house fan, owned solar panels, a water purification system, and dual 2,500-gallon water storage tanks served by 1 PCWA ditch water. Outside, the grounds are equally impressive. A kitchen orchard delivers fresh apples, plums, figs, almonds, and citrus, complemented by mature native oaks and buckeyes plus newly planted redwoods and cypress. The expansive 8.8-acre parcel offers privacy, space to roam, and endless opportunities for gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the views. And let's not forget to mention the 960 sqft shop for all your storage needs. Conveniently located with easy highway access, the home places you within a short commute to Lincoln, Auburn, Rocklin, and Roseville. Highly rated Del Oro High School District. This rare combination of mid-century charm, comprehensive modern updates, exceptional infrastructure, and private acreage in a prime foothill location is truly one-of-a-kind.
