Two Homes, Endless Possibilities — Charming Dual-Dwelling Property in Loyalton, CA Step into the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience with this unique dual-home property in the heart of Loyalton, CA. Whether you're an investor seeking a solid return or a buyer looking to offset your mortgage with rental income, this opportunity checks all the boxes. Home #1 is a beautifully remodeled 1-bedroom, 1-bath home, originally built in 1920. Thoughtful updates maintain its timeless character while offering the comfort and efficiency of today’s standards. From the back paver patio to the updated interiors, this home invites warmth and simplicity. Home #2 is a studio unit tucked privately at the back of the property. It features ample storage and its own enclosed outbuilding, making it ideal as a guest house, rental unit, or creative space. The homes are strategically placed on a flat, tastefully landscaped parcel to maximize privacy between them. Most of the land is on zoned irrigation, offering great potential for gardening or low-maintenance landscaping. The partially fenced yard with rod iron accents adds to the curb appeal. A detached garage is currently more suited for storage or workshop use, and there’s a covered outbuilding near the front home—perfect for wood storage or additional utility needs. Located approximately 45 minutes to Reno and 30 minutes to Truckee, this home gives you access to both city life and mountain recreation, while enjoying the peace and affordability of small-town living. Why rent when you can own? Live in one home and rent out the other to help cover your mortgage—or capitalize on the dual-income potential by leasing both units.
