About 7131 Helmrich Lane
A rare Placerville property with incredible potential is now available. Set on 13 private, usable acres, this nearly 3,000 sq ft home offers an exceptional natural setting with a year-round creek and a beautiful pond. A true mountain-retreat atmosphere just minutes from town. The property prior to the fire was valued much higher, highlighting its strong value and long-term potential. A fire originating in the garage has caused damage throughout the home, making this an amazing opportunity for buyers, contractors, and investors seeking land, water features, and the ability to rebuild or restore a high-value estate. This property had solar. The panel were damaged in the fire, however 3 Franklin batteries and the infrastructure remain, two Generac generators with an automatic transfer switch provide consistent power during power outages. The downstairs basement was a movie theater and pool/game room complete with a full bathroom. Opportunities combining water features, large acreage, Placerville location, and high appraisal value rarely come up especially with the added flexibility of renovation or new design. This is a chance to bring a stunning property back to life and capture significant long-term value.
