2165 W Biggs Gridley

Resort-Like Sanctuary in the Heart of Sacramento Valley

The moment you pass through the large and beautifully crafted front doors, you get a sense of the generous hearts that created this haven. The first feeling is one of openness and welcome. It’s not hard to imagine the connections across multiple generations that have been forged here, thanks to careful design and countless thoughtful touches. 

If you happen to be one of the owners’ grandchildren, you know what it’s like to feel conflicted about where to begin: should you bolt for the fun-filled game room with ample space for foosball, pool, air hockey, shuffleboard, and whatever else you might imagine? Or do you run outside and slide into the pool on a hot day (or the expansive hot tub on a cold one)? Or do you make a beeline for Papa’s Park, the one-of-a-kind playground expertly assembled by the loving hands of your grandfather? 

Those just looking to relax will find no shortage of comfortable places to sit and talk, whether inside or out. The spacious kitchen is perfectly laid out, whether you are preparing and serving an intimate family gathering or hosting a large event. The resort-like grounds can easily accommodate a large number of guests and have played host to many memorable occasions, from casual family barbecues to elegant garden parties. The property is famous for hosting the world-record setting elephant toothpaste volcano by famous YouTuber Mark Rober – look it up!

The location in the heart of the Sacramento Valley serves as a sanctuary and escape from urban or suburban life amid thriving orchards of fruit and nut trees. The 22-acre walnut orchard on the property provides a quiet place to walk, as well as a bountiful harvest – nearly 140,000 pounds of Chandler walnuts were collected last year. The Gridley area is a paradise for naturalists and sportspeople alike. 
The Gray Lodge Wildlife Area is in the neighborhood and is perfectly situated along the Pacific Flyway for the countless species of birds, from waterfowl and shorebirds to majestic raptors, who stop here each season. Nearby bodies of water – the Feather and Sacramento rivers and Lake Oroville – provide additional opportunities for fishing and water sports. 

The Oroville Municipal Airport is only 15 minutes away and can accommodate a wide array of private planes for a quick escape from the San Francisco Bay Area or other regional locations. The Sacramento International Airport is less than 60 miles away for trips that take you farther afield.
This resort-like retreat is a rare opportunity — a chance to choose a lifestyle that will make this a treasured refuge for its next owners.
