Spanning 11 acres deep in Livermore's backcountry with dual ridge lines and no immediate neighbors, this property offers unparalleled peace and total separation from urban life.
Equipped with a solar-powered cabin and a seasonal pond, the property is perfectly suited for a self-sufficient lifestyle or a sustainable recreational retreat.
The existing 800-square-foot cabin is unpermitted and rustic, which may complicate traditional financing and require future legalizations or upgrades to meet building codes.

Set deep into Livermore’s backcountry just beyond the 17-mile marker on Mines Road, this 11-acre property is about as private and remote as it gets. If you’re looking for neighbors, this isn’t it. If you’re looking for quiet, space, and complete separation from the pace of everyday life…this is exactly that. The land is largely untouched, with rolling terrain, dual ridge lines, and a natural gulch that creates both character and seclusion. It’s the kind of property where you can carve your own trails, disappear into the landscape, and create a true off-grid experience. The 800 sqft solar-powered cabin is unpermitted and intentionally simple. This is not a polished residence. It’s a rustic hideaway. A place to unplug, reset, and live closer to the land. With a seasonal pond, expansive open space, and no nearby development, the setting offers a rare level of privacy and self-sufficiency. Ideal for those seeking a weekend escape, recreational retreat, or a true off-grid lifestyle. This is less about a home—and more about a way of living.
