It's 1000 sf with a quaint covered porch, radiant floor heating, a huge green house, mature fruit trees and large attached garage. Both of these houses are so close to the adorable and vibrant little town of North San Juan but with the RARE PRIVACY that comes from backing directly to BLM land, so you have no neighbors on the back side. Surrounded by nature and located just minutes from an amazing swimming hole at the Yuba River, this is the kind of property that appeals to buyers who see potential. The second home is currently tenant occupied and generating over $1,800 per month in rental income, providing immediate cash flow while you improve the property or create your long-term vision. The main home recently received interior paint and started flooring updates. Some work is needed on both houses, but that is reflected in the incredible price for TWO HOUSES.

Whether you're dreaming of room for animals, multigenerational possibilities, gardening, outdoor recreation, or simply a quieter life with space between you and your neighbors, 19780 Venus Court invites you to come experience what foothill living can offer. Property backs up to BLM land for extra privacy!
