Description

The house is recently remodeled. It is a two-story, with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths on the upper level and kitchen, living room half-bath and entertainment room on the lower level.

The house sits on 20 acres and looks out over a vast expanse of oaks, cedars and meadow. There is a large pond nearby, and we have seen Canadian ducks, white cranes and turtles in it. It is very quiet, except for the sounds of crickets, owls and etc.

We are a couple with a toddler, so the home is child-friendly. We have one sweet cat who will want food, water and some love.

The house is available through late winter and then into spring, which is a beautiful time to be in Grass Valley. The drive into downtown Grass Valley takes about 10 minutes. We are in the foothills of the Sierras, with Lake Tahoe (skiing) an hour away, and San Francisco the other direction about 3 hours away.

Neighborhood

Very quiet, with beautiful walks. If you want town access, you'll need a car. Bus stops are at least a mile away. The neighbors are mostly couples, older to mid-range. We are so far the only family with young 'uns around, but it's a great place for a child because there is so much nature -- not to mention a great trampoline and other play stuff!

About Us

My husband is a contractor and I am a yoga teacher. Our son is 3. We are quiet-living people who love living close to nature. We love music, hiking and being with our son. I speak a little bit of french and spanish, and my husband, who is a native New Zealander, speaks Kiwi. ;-)

Destination

We have been living in the US for many years. Now that our son is 3, we are thinking of moving back to my husband's native country of New Zealand, to be in that beautiful country and close to his family.

Specifically we are looking at Nelson, Christchurch and the more rural areas of Auckland as places to settle. Within the above dates we are quite flexible, and we are also open as to location -- as long as it's on the south island.
