Presenting The Nail Factory, a legendary 15.6-acre live-work compound and one of only twelve properties in Nevada County uniquely zoned for a combination of Residential, Agricultural, and Light Industrial use. This rare asset is located just minutes from the world-famous Yuba River and features a high-capacity industrial park and an expansive residential complex nestled in the Sierra Nevada foothills. The industrial core consists of the 16,500 sqft Madrone Building and the 3,700 sqft Cedars Building, currently housing over 30 rental units and equipped with PGE industrial 3-phase power, a 150kW Caterpillar backup generator, and 150Mb fiber internet. Additional outbuildings include a 1,300 sqft horse barn and a separate 336 sqft permitted shed. The residential compound is anchored by a 3,500 sqft 3 bedroom, 3 bath main home, a 2,200 sqft pool house, a 450 sqft detached granny cottage, and a versatile 5700 sqft Quonset building/ workshop. Beyond the workspace, the western Back Forty offers five acres of pristine forest, nature trails, and 25 level campsites, making it an ideal venue for gatherings or retreats. This is a significant value-add opportunity, as the property is being sold with professional engineering plans and as-built permitting work already in progress with Jackson & Sands Engineering. With its robust infrastructure, established rental income, and one-of-a-kind zoning, The Nail Factory represents a premier investment or creative headquarters in a world-class Northern California location.
