Description
Positioned within the historic Middleton Tract of unincorporated San Mateo County, this 3.1± acre fee-simple parcel presents a rare, accessible opportunity to acquire a pristine, forested mountain holding. Bordered by majestic coastal redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens) and located in immediate proximity to Portola Redwoods State Park, the property combines serene wilderness solitude with pre-development momentum designed to significantly shorten the standard planning and entitlement timeline. TOPOGRAPHY & NATURAL FOOTPRINT Unlike steep, unbuildable mountain terrain, the property features a prominent natural building bench/pad situated amid a gentle-to-rolling forest canopy. This natural contour offers an ideal physical footprint for a primary residence, modern modular cabin, or private mountain retreat—reducing initial earthwork, retaining wall needs, and heavy civil engineering overhead. The forest ecosystem is dominated by healthy second-growth coastal redwoods, Douglas fir, and native mountain flora, creating a secluded retreat environment surrounded by protected watershed and parklands. ADVANCED PRE-DEVELOPMENT & UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE Acquiring rural land in San Mateo County often entails years of regulatory gridlock. This parcel stands out by offering active "paper infrastructure" steps already underway to streamline the build process: Utility Planning: Pre-development coordination in progress for electrical drop and service layout. Formal Address Assignment: County address coordination actively queued to facilitate civil mapping, postal service, utility setup, and emergency dispatch integration. WUI Chapter 7A Alignment: Conceptual site planning and structure orientation engineered in accordance with Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) California Building Code Chapter 7A fire-hardening standards. Access & Ingress: Positioned directly off Back Road within the established interior road network of the Middleton Tract. LOCATION & REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY Located in the Santa Cruz Mountains along the Slate Creek basin, the property offers direct access to regional trail systems and state park infrastructure. Despite its deep-woods privacy, the site maintains convenient connectivity to Highway 35 (Skyline Boulevard) and Page Mill Road, providing direct access down to Palo Alto, Stanford University, Silicon Valley tech corridors, and San Francisco. INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS & DUAL-EXIT POTENTIAL Private Residential / Modular Build: Perfect entry-level footprint for a private owner-builder, architectural cabin, or off-grid eco-sanctuary. Long-Term Land Holding: Low holding costs in a high-demand, supply-constrained Bay Area county with finite private acreage. DUE DILIGENCE & CONTACT Preliminary title records, parcel boundary overlays, and preliminary site details are available upon request to qualified buyers and brokers.
