$59,900. That’s not a typo, and it’s not a down payment — it’s the whole thing. 2.70 acres of level, usable land in Fort Jones, CA, up in Siskiyou County near the Oregon border, about 5-6 hours north of the Bay.
If you’ve ever sat in traffic on 101 doing the math on what it would take to actually own land outright — no mortgage, no HOA, no $4,000/month just to exist — this is what that math looks like somewhere else. Tall pines and oaks, a well already on site (10 GPM tested), electricity available, and a level building pad with genuinely dark skies and zero freeway noise.
This isn’t a weekend-commute property — think second home, future retirement land, or a long-term hold while prices up here keep climbing. Scott Valley is the kind of place people from the Bay are increasingly buying into for exactly this reason.
The details:
2.70± level, usable acres — zoned R-R-B
Well already in — 1995 report, 10 GPM tested
Electricity available; needs septic
