Leave the City Behind

03-09-08

There is a little town in the Sierra Foothills called Iowa Hill. It still has a one-room school for kids k-8. Only 56 families receive mail at the local post office housed in the only visible business in the community, the Iowa Hill Store/Bar/Post Office/Restrauant. Everyone lives off the grid (solar, hydro-power, batteries and generators)

It is a lifestyle where you wake to the song of birds, listen to wind blowing through the pines, play at Sugar Pine Lake or at the snow park at China Wall above Foresthill. There are riding trails past the lake for dirt bikes, fishing at Sugar Pine Lake, hiking, riding, crystal digging, gold panning. There is room to grow gardens and have family gatherings. People in the area tend to be somewhat independent.

Iowa Hill is a historic gold mining area where some still live on mining gold full time. Others work off the hill or have second homes for their get-a-way. It is a great place to re-create. It is unique and is one of the best kept secrets of Placer County.

Testimonials

Mountain Spirit? This spirit reached out to me across the Internet. Posted pictures of this unusual property leered at me, luring me in. I clicked for more detail, Susan Kelly, the listing agent, graciously accommodated my realtor's request. An appointment had been set to view the property right away. The very next morning, Susan welcomed me home! Exquisiteness she captured and broadcast the spirit of this enchanting mountain bungalow, accurately, complimentary, in proper detail. A year, I had spent, searching for my home, traveling thousands of miles, to be in continued disappointment. Susan's listing, unique among many, held true to the humble but charming photos and descriptions she had posted on the Internet. We spent the entire day negotiating then completing the paperwork. Susan proved champion! I had the completed, signed purchase agreement that evening, within 24 hours of that first click on the Internet. My Mountain dream home became reality. Susan was instrumental in helping escrow close quickly too, in just 14 days! It was clear every moment that the scope of Susan's personal measure of success reached well beyond the sale, to also represent and assuage of spirit of all involved with candid honesty and fairness. My one-year home anniversary is coming up in just a few days. I continue to feel blessed and grateful with each passing day. Susan has found me, and brought me home.

Thank you, Susan. Forever to you my gratitude expressed. Leonard A. Vanaria
