Property Description

Owning one of the original 100 Registered California Historical Landmarks would be a rare feather in the cap indeed - here's your chance! California Historical Landmark #98 is for sale- Keyesville California, the wild-west gold town that started the S. California Gold Rush! Gold was struck here in the Southern Sierra Mountains in 1853 and Keyesville sprang up to serve the miners who flocked here to seek their fortunes. The 4.5 acre parcel has a residence with modern amenities built from the original town post office and gold assayer's office. Other gold-era buildings dot the property, and the town graveyard lies just a few hundred yards away on state land, where founders and notable residents lay with tombstone birthdates ranging to the 1700's. Provenance anyone? The Granite & Bronze Historical Landmark Monument sits at the entrance, dedicated in 1937. Sotheby's just sold a banana taped to a wall for 6.2M - what might one of the original 100 California Historical Landmarks bring? Who knows. It's been owned since the gold rush days by the reclusive ancestry of a famous comedian who kept the property off-limits, so accurate internet photos of the place don't exist. Historical details can be found in the books of Bob Powers and others, depicting visits from Grizzly Adams, gunfighters, etc. Since an 'Original 100' landmark sale is so rare, a test ad was posted 2 years ago to gauge interest. This is not a test and if sold it will be the 2nd time this gold-rush landmark has changed hands in 100 years. California is the 'Golden' State - it's right there on our license plates. Owning a gold-rush California landmark site is an absurdly rare opportunity for a collector. With the modernized mountain retreat home and incredible see-forever views it's also a practical purchase. Keep it for yourself, restore it for state history & heritage, or put it on Sothebys where they just sold that 6M banana! What comes with sale? In the few words left here: Registered historical landmark townsite with residence & 1800's buildings with no restrictions - restore them, AB&B, make apartments etc. Grid power 220V/110V & 3 separate power meters. 3 RV pads w septic. Free forever water w. rights (landmark bottled water co?). Full shop w. tools. Build dream home w. stunning 360 view. Zoned 'A' for any business. In a market saturated with 'unique opportunities,' here is something truly singular - your chance to own one of the first 100 Cailfornia Historical Landmark sites!
