About Big Ridge Road
OWNER MAY CARRY: Just above the foothills surrounding Lake Oroville lies this expansive 63 acre property offering a rare blend of size, elevation, privacy, and diverse mountainous terrain. The land consists of two legal parcels; a 60-acre tract plus an additional 3 acre parcel providing flexibility for future use or long term planning.
Elevations range from approximately 1,880 feet in the lower meadow areas to 2,200+/- feet at the upper reaches, creating dramatic changes in landscape and viewpoint. An old road weaves through the property, climbing toward the upper ridgeline where panoramic 360-degree views open up across surrounding mountains, rolling terrain, and even a potential distant lake view.
This is an engaging and dynamic parcel with mixed topography, natural runoff ravines, and abundant land to explore. The area is known for its rich outdoor heritage with the Oroville region having a long history tied to gold prospecting, recreation, and backcountry living. The setting offers exceptional privacy once you are on the land, making it well suited for those seeking space, quiet, and separation from the everyday world.
The property also presents strong potential as a recreational or hunting tract, with ample acreage for outdoor pursuits, hiking, target practice in appropriate locations, and wildlife activity typical of the area. With its size and seclusion, it could serve as an ideal location for a cabin retreat, country home, or self-sustaining property, subject to buyer due diligence and local regulations.
Power lines run just adjacent to the lower 3 acre parcel. From the base of Big Ridge Road, the property is approximately 12.2 miles from Lakeside Market for fuel, supplies, and basic amenities, with a short drive beyond into town.
Seller may consider owner financing on the full 63 acres with a reasonable down payment and negotiated terms; contact your agent for additional details. A rare opportunity to acquire a large, private tract of land offering views, recreation, and the freedom to create something truly your own.
