Saddle up -- this is the country homestead setup home buyers are looking for. Situated on 5 fully usable acres between Redding and Palo Cedro, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home offers 1,600+ sq ft of comfortable living space with a cozy fireplace anchoring the living area and a floor plan that's easy to live in and easy to make your own. HVAC system replaced in 2024 which is great to keep things comfortable during those hot summer months. The land is where this one shines: fully fenced and cross-fenced pastures ready for horses or livestock from day one, a small shop/horse barn for tack, hay, or projects, and a seasonal pond that brings the whole setting to life. Whether you're starting a hobby farm, bringing your horses home, or simply want privacy without a long commute, you get true country living just minutes from town, schools, and shopping. Properties with this much usable, animal-ready acreage don't come along often at this price point.
