2251 Folendorf Road, Murphys, CA 95247

About this home

Perched above historic Murphys in a private gated community, this remarkable 45+ acre estate spans two legal parcels and captures sweeping panoramic views of the Sierra Foothills and town below just minutes from downtown. The 3,623 sq. ft. lodge-style residence blends timeless craftsmanship with natural materials, featuring radiant heated floors, a quarter-sawn oak entry door with Frank Lloyd Wrightinspired beveled glass, soaring 30+ ft ceilings, massive kiln-dried beams, and an antique Riverside wood-burning stove. Additional improvements include a 748 sq. ft. guest cottage, 2,312 sq. ft. garage/workshop, patios, fire suppression system with 10,000-gallon tank, irrigation, pond, stream, waterfall, and a treehouse with plumbing and power. Parcel 1 (22.03 ac) includes the residence and structures; Parcel 2 (23.65 ac) offers land ideal for expansion, vineyard potential, or added privacy. Unlike many estate properties that impose themselves on the land, this home was thoughtfully designed to harmonize with its untouched native landscape its natural materials, scale, and setting allowing it to disappear into the terrain rather than dominate it. The result is a retreat that feels disdiscovered rather than built a one-of-a-kind Sierra Foothill sanctuary.
