Some homes are simply addresses. This one is a landmark. A one-of-a-kind custom home with historic flair, this distinctive Georgian Manor captures the spirit of California's Gold Country. Imagine the charm and intricate details of a grand Gold Rush mansion, lovingly preserved as a museum, yet enjoy the comfort of a home built for modern living. The arrival is unforgettable: pass through the automatic gate and follow the driveway beneath a canopy of crepe myrtles to reveal a tree-shaded front lawn and a striking home with a steeply pitched roof, charming dormers, broad front porch, and graceful curved brick steps. Built in 1998, this 2,568 sq. ft. residence sits on two level, fenced and gated acres at the corner of Highway 49 and Galena Road in El Dorado. Inside, timeless craftsmanship shines through in the stunning wainscoting, crown molding, and custom millwork. A formal parlor and dining room showcase the home's traditional elegance, while the inviting family room is anchored by a massive river-rock hearth with a thermostat-controlled gas insert, blending rustic grandeur with modern comfort. The kitchen features new quartz countertops, while beautifully detailed bathrooms continue the home's old-world character. A massive 600 sq ft flex room above the oversized four-car garage offers substantial extra square footage beyond the stated 2,568 sq ft. Here, historic Highway 49 is more than a route through the foothills; it's a journey through California's Gold Rush legacy. Explore nearby Coloma, Placerville, Diamond Springs, and Georgetown, or make a weekend getaway of Sutter Creek and Murphys, known for their historic Main Streets, boutique shops, wineries, and inviting restaurants. Museums, community festivals, scenic drives, hiking, and American River recreation offer endless ways to experience the history, beauty, and character of the surrounding foothills. More than a home, this is a landmark in the local landscape- a rare opportunity to own a property with enduring character and a story all its own.
