The property is well suited for horses, livestock, or hobby farming with a barn featuring a tack room, equipment storage, and three stalls with paddocks, along with a shop building that includes a large walk-in refrigeration room. Cow Creek flows year-round and offer some fun warm-water fishing opportunities for bass. The creek hosts King Salmon spawning runs in the fall, providing some exciting viewing opportunities as these fish splash and spawn. During cooler months large rainbow trout occasionally move upstream from the Lower Sacramento River, creating unique backyard fishing opportunities. Wildlife is abundant with deer, turkey, quail, and waterfowl frequently seen along the creek corridor. Conveniently located just minutes from Palo Cedro and about 15 minutes to Redding, this special property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy private creekfront acreage with a beautiful home and usable land while remaining close to town.
