Built in 1900 (126 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1900, has been updated and refurbished, as noted in the description. The main house features well-maintained hardwood floors and functional heating/cooling (wood stove, mini-split). However, the kitchen in the main house, with its beige cabinets and teal tile countertops, appears dated, likely from a renovation 15-30 years ago. The main bathroom, with its clawfoot tub and pedestal sink, is clean and functional but also reflects an older, traditional style. The detached studio unit is in better condition with a more contemporary kitchenette and bathroom, but the overall impression of the main living space leans towards 'fair' due to the outdated styles in the primary kitchen and bathroom, suggesting minor updates would be beneficial.

About this home

Two units on 1.3 acres. The main house is the updated and refurbished Rumsey School House. It has a large great room, one bedroom and the bell tower which has a lower room and then two lofts above. The large covered porch and back porch adds to the outdoor living space. There is a second studio unit above the detached garage with a full bathroom, bedroom (murphy bed) and kitchenette. The studio has a private deck that looks over the property. The land is level with many trees and access to the Rumsey Irrigation District ditch for additional irrigation water. In addition to the two units, there is a one room structure with a wall air conditioner that is a perfect place for guest to stay or a great she-shed or man cave. This property is very private and yet only 15 minutes to Cache Creek Resort and Golf. Capay Valley has many organic farms, wineries, rafting down the Cache Creek and many other recreational options.
