Placer and Nevada County offers a plethora of horse properties for all horse riding disciplines. Located in the Sierra Foothills, between Sacramento and North Lake Tahoe the terrain varies between flat to gentle rolling hills with little to no trees to more sloped properties with more trees, at the higher elevations. There are many horse properties that come on the market, some with barns and arenas and others with just fencing and an open pallet to build what you desire. While there is enough rain to typically provide green grass 5-8 months of the year, it may be important to you that the property provides irrigation water. Irrigation water in Placer and Nevada Counties are provided by the Nevada Irrigation District (NID) or Placer County Water Agency (PCWA). Not all properties have access to this water, so if it is important to have year-round irrigated pastures, let your Realtor know. Prices range from approx. $550,000 to multi-millions. There are a few communities that offer riding trails, maintained by the HOA – like Sierra Foothill Estates and the Rancho’s in Auburn or Auburn Lake Trails in Cool. A savvy horse rider & Realtor can look for properties that back up to public horse riding trails so that you have easy access. These may include parks like Hidden Falls, Empire Mine, Folsom Lake or the Canyon or a private place that only a trail rider will know about.
