Historic Farm and Acreage for Sale in Elk Grove

By
Real Estate Agent with Elizabeth Anne Weintraub, Broker DRE #00697006

Are you searching for a historic farm and acreage in Elk Grove? Look no further, as this property is waterfront. If you can't build on the waterfront because, well, it's Elk Grove and not the coast, you can always bring the waterfront to you. Although there are a few luxury waterfront homes in Elk Grove, this has its own private lake that is not shared by anyone else.

Below is my partner JaCi's backstory on this new listing:

. . . There was a couple who were boyfriend and girlfriend for many years. She was a very bright woman who loved birds and orchids. She was a very active person, full of life. Her boyfriend was retired law enforcement whom I think must have had a heart the size of Texas. She had an accident which left her paralyzed. She sustained further injuries and had to be put on a respirator. Her boyfriend married her and they bought this ranch, 80 acres of paradise. He built her a house and created this lake. He dug out the dirt, planted the trees and plants, and he made the lake for her. It has a beautiful footbridge, a walking path, two islands, and a huge rock waterfall. This was important as it was what she would look at each day from her brick patio outside her room. She had to have 24-hour care . . .

That's quite an amazing history and story associated with that property, Elizabeth.  I was looking at the location on the map.  I have been on highway 16 going through Sloughhouse, and I've been on Grantline Road.  But, I don't believe I've been on that little stretch through Elk Grove where that property exists!

Myrl Jeffcoat Yes, this is a little gem hidden away in Elk Grove, and will take a specific buyer. Not everybody wants that much acreage.

80 acres is a bunch of acres.  The first thing that came to mind when I first read that, was I'd need either a bigger lawnmower or a herd of goats!
