Two houses, a separate workshop building, five acres and six ski resorts under an hour away. This immaculate gated compound in Loomis, set near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains about 30 minutes from Sacramento, is chock full of amenities, private and ideal for multigenerational living.

Did we mention the waterfall-fed lily pond, stone-surrounded swimming pool and motocross track? “The property is completely dialed,” says listing agent Cynthia Smith of Guide Real Estate.

Then, there is the Placer County lifestyle: hiking, walking trails, parks, highly rated schools and low crime rate. Plus, Smith says, Folsom Lake State Recreation Area is an easy 16-minute drive from the property.

Built in 2004, the compound is anchored by a multigabled main house with 5,455 square feet of living space and a covered rear patio. Craftsman details are evident in the multipaned windows, use of natural materials, deep eaves and plinth-based columns.

Open to the central hallway and dining room, the vaulted ceiling living room features a stone fireplace and 10-foot hidden theater screen. Thick wooden rafters and wood floors are among the details.

A wood ceiling also tops the center-island kitchen. A breakfast room, den, office, bonus room and exercise room are among other living spaces.

The primary suite is on the main floor and includes a steam shower, ceiling tub filler, heated floors and access to an outdoor hot tub. There are four bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms. A full bathroom, outdoor kitchen and fireplace are near the pool. A four-car garage is attached.

The guest house encompasses 1,450 square feet with vaulted ceilings, a loft, two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, kitchen, laundry and attached two-car garage.

An expansive stand-alone building with a workshop can accommodate an RV, boat or up to eight cars.

The acreage consists of a landscaped yard, fenced pastures, a stream, vegetable gardens and fruit trees. The property has the potential for off-grid living with solar power, two wells, a 1,000 gallon-propane tank, generator and three septic tanks.

The residence offers something that’s hard to come by near the state capital, Smith says. “It’s difficult to find 5-acre lots surrounded by mature trees as you move closer to Sacramento.”

The asking price for 4645 Hidden Oaks Lane in Loomis is $3.935 million.

Smith thinks the buyer will use the property as a primary residence. “I envision a self-made successful business owner with the desire for space for his toys, privacy and appreciation for the quality build and thought that went into the details, amenities and materials.”
