Yreka | $995,000
A Queen Anne Revival house built in 1895, on 0.5 acres
This five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom house, one of the largest in town, is near the center of Yreka, a Gold Rush boomtown 20 miles from the Oregon state line. A park with a playground is a few blocks away, and nearby Miner Street has a bookstore, a candy shop, and a handful of restaurants. Klamath National Forest & Butte Valley National Grassland is 15 minutes away, and Mount Shasta, popular with climbers and backcountry skiers, is less than an hour away.
Driving to Chico takes less than three hours, and Eugene, Ore., is a three-and-a-half-hour drive. Sacramento and Reno are both around four hours away.
Size: 6,884 square feet
Price per square foot: $145
Indoors: From the sidewalk, a paved path leads to a wraparound porch, where a door opens to a foyer with original wood paneling.
Off one side of the foyer is the living room, where a decorative fireplace has an original tile surround and a wood mantelpiece. A bay of windows faces the street, and a wide doorway opens to a sitting room with green walls and an original ceiling medallion. A second sitting room is also off the foyer, with direct access to a formal dining room with blue walls.
At the back of this level is the updated kitchen, which has granite countertops and Thermador appliances, including a stainless steel gas range. A bedroom is off one side of the kitchen, as is a full bathroom.
From the foyer, a winding staircase continues to the two upper floors. The large second floor landing, currently home to a desk, offers access to four bedrooms, including the primary suite. Here, a bay of windows overlooks the yard, and a decorative fireplace has a blue tile surround. One door opens to a walk-in closet, and the other to a bathroom with a soaking tub and a separate shower.
