Welcome to The C&C Lodge, an extraordinary custom-crafted mountain estate nestled on nearly two private acres within the prestigious Valley Ranch community. Widely regarded as one of the premier luxury properties in California's Lost Sierra, this remarkable estate combines exceptional craftsmanship, engineering, privacy, and recreation in a setting that simply cannot be duplicated. Perfectly positioned to capture sweeping panoramic views of Mohawk Valley and Mills Peak, the approximately 4,884-square-foot handcrafted log residence is complemented by nearly 3,000 square feet of expansive decks and patios, creating seamless indoor and outdoor living. At the heart of the estate is a private pond with a private dock and a picturesque bridge leading to a beautifully landscaped private island. A professionally engineered mountain creek begins just off the rear deck cascading through a sub pond before flowing into the main pond, creating the peaceful sights and sounds of a natural Sierra stream. Designed for entertaining, the gourmet outdoor kitchen features a professional-grade DCS barbecue, with two side burners, commercial stainless-steel hood with integrated heat lamps and lighting, sink, and generous preparation space overlooking the pond. Inside, the chef's kitchen includes a professional six-burner range with integrated griddle, commercial hood with heat lamps and lighting, dual sinks, expansive granite countertops, and a 48-inch KitchenAid Professional side-by-side refrigerator/freezer. The luxurious primary suite opens onto its own private deck featuring a hot tub overlooking the championship-rated bocce ball court and beautifully landscaped grounds. The spa-inspired bath features dual shower heads with instant hot water and an elegant clawfoot soaking tub. The meticulously landscaped grounds include manicured lawns, annual flower gardens, mature trees, a landscaped private island, an inviting fire pit, and a central automatic irrigation system serving virtually every lawn, tree, shrub, and planting throughout the estate. The oversized finished custom garage includes a dedicated workshop, a private wine cellar with its own separate entrance, and a beautifully appointed guest residence above featuring two bedrooms, a loft with four additional beds, a full kitchen with its own wine refrigerator, and spacious living areas. Engineered for year-round reliability, the estate is equipped with a commercial-grade 65-kilowatt standby generator powered by a Chevrolet 454 (7.4-liter) V-8 industrial engine supported by an approximately 500-gallon dedicated fuel tank.
