18020 Benson Road Cottonwood, CA 95963-8627

Welcome to a true Northern California retreat where adventure, wildlife, and wide-open space meet comfort and sweeping views. This 55-acre property features rolling terrain, established trails, seasonal creeks, natural springs, and ponds that draw abundant wildlife year-round. The back acreage regularly produces antler sheds and offers sightings of turkeys, wild pigs, and large bucks. A seasonal pond creates a peaceful oasis where ducks and turtles gather, adding to the serene natural setting. Equestrians and livestock owners will appreciate two large fenced pastures and a well-equipped 4-stall barn with a feed room, tack room, power, water, and 12x12 stalls with individual runs. A large chicken coop and additional small-animal pens make the property ideal for raising chickens, goats, or other livestock. For hobbyists or those needing workspace, the property includes a private shooting range, two storage outbuildings, and a large shop with power, water, a swamp cooler, and 220V—perfect for projects or equipment. Thoughtful infrastructure adds peace of mind, including fire hose hookups throughout the front of the property, a deep well, and a gravity-fed water storage tank. Perched atop the hill, the homes enjoy panoramic views of Mt. Lassen and Mt. Shasta, along with stunning sunsets over the valley. The property borders 1,000 acres of farmland, offering exceptional privacy while remaining close to town. Two homes complete the property: a 2-bed, 2-bath main home with an open floor plan and large view windows, and a 1-bed, 1-bath guest home with a sunroom and shaded deck overlooking the pastures and mountains. SQFT and room count to be combined per MLS guidelines.
