A truly rare opportunity in Sleepy Hollow 2.82 beautiful acres directly fronting the community's private 16+ acre Quail Lake parcel, with no residential parcel between you and the lake. Tucked at the end of the road, this is an exceptional setting offering privacy, direct access to the lake and trails, and the opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind foothill estate. Imagine building your dream home overlooking the lake, where mornings begin with a walk around the neighborhood and evenings can be spent casting a line from the shore. Quail Lake and the community's horseback and hiking trails are private amenities reserved for Sleepy Hollow residents and their accompanied guests. The property offers much more than a beautiful setting. A survey has already been completed, extensive tree and land clearing has been done, and a road has been cut in along the property line adjoining the lake parcel. A seasonal watercourse travels through the property to the lake, adding another beautiful natural feature. In addition to the primary homesite, there is a second potential building area farther up the property, creating exciting possibilities for the way the land could ultimately be used. Previous conceptual home drawings are also available for reference. Bring your vision custom home, barn, shop, or potential ADU. The acreage provides room to create something special while retaining the natural character that makes this setting so unique. Imagine bringing the horses, exploring the nearby equestrian trails, and perhaps creating a charming bridge over the seasonal creek as part of your own private retreat. Sleepy Hollow offers the relaxed atmosphere of country living without sacrificing convenience. Enjoy paved neighborhood roads, Quail Lake, wildlife, spacious properties and custom homes within a scenic foothill private community. All of this is approximately 5 minutes from everyday shopping, 10 minutes from the American River and nearby dining/entertainment, and about 15 minutes from El Dorado Hills or historic downtown Placerville. Located within the Rescue Union School District and Ponderosa High School. Whether your vision is a family legacy property, equestrian retreat, or peaceful retirement destination, opportunities with this combination of acreage, privacy, lake access and proximity to town are exceptionally difficult to find.
