Rare opportunity to own a piece of California Gold Rush history in the heart of historic Grass Valley. Built in 1880, this iconic Victorian property is rich with character, flexibility, and timeless architectural charm. Formerly operated as a Bed & Breakfast, the property has long been a place where travelers, entrepreneurs, and dreamers gathered in one of California's most beloved Gold Country towns. Located just blocks from historic downtown Grass Valley, Empire Mine State Historic Park, restaurants, boutiques, coffee shops, theaters, and year-round community events, the setting offers an ideal blend of walkability, history, and Sierra foothill charm. The home features 5 bedrooms and 5 full bathrooms with soaring ceilings, finished attic space, beautiful wood floors, stained glass accents, crown molding, spacious gathering rooms, and a large kitchen for entertaining. Peaceful outdoor spaces include a private courtyard, elevated deck area beneath the trees, lovely front porch, and multiple areas to relax and enjoy the property's serene atmosphere. One of the most unique features of the property is the iconic Bottle House, a rare artistic structure that has become a memorable local landmark over the years. A large detached garage and workshop provide incredible flexibility for hobbies, storage, creative space, or potential future use. Abundant off-street parking adds even more versatility. With its rich history, prime location, commercial/residential flexibility, and unforgettable character, this is a truly rare opportunity to own one of Grass Valley's distinctive historic properties.
