Residential Lot, Close To Power & Underground Utilities

The subject property is a 4.77 acre lot located along Western Horizon Drive just south of Pioneer Drive in Paradise Valley Ranchos, a residential subdivision situated just east of US 95 and twenty minutes north of Winnemucca.

When we speak of property we typically use an address -- 123 Main Street for instance. 

As most vacant land does not have a physical address, however, county governments will identify it in other ways, such as a "legal description", a parcel number or a tax code. The information provided in the table to the right are the ways in which the various state and county agencies will identify this specific parcel of land. These signifiers are important to have when speaking with these agencies - whether they be the assessor, the zoning office, or even the local utilities - and may prove invaluable when initiating conversations about whatever research a buyer intends to do.

Whenever one exists or has been assigned to the land, the physical address will be included in this table.

Roads & Access: The subject property has road access at its western border along Western Horizon Drive. This road, as well as most all the roads throughout the Paradise Valley Ranchos subdivision, are made up of a largely dirt/gravel consistency and can likely be navigated by any vehicle type.

Power & Utilities: Power lines and underground utilities can be found running throughout this region and servicing a number of nearby developed home sites. While neither have a presence on the subject property itself, they are as close as five hundred feet away on a neighboring lot. Because of this, it should be both easy and affordable to connect power to whatever you decide to build on the land. Anyone looking to investigate the cost and logistics of getting connected to the grid is encouraged to contact Nevada Energy, the utility company servicing this region.

No HOA: The Paradise Valley Ranchos subdivision does not have a formal HOA nor are there are any annual dues associated with land ownership here. In addition, there are no time limits on building, no covenants and no restrictions governing the land in this region which should provide potential buyers with even greater freedom and independence to develop the property however they please.

Zoning: While the subject property may be without subdivision restrictions, Humboldt County is not without formal zoning. This particular region is zoned AG-5 or Agricultural General 5, a designation which allows for everything from single family residences and mobile homes to agricultural and livestock activities, including farms and ranches. In addition, there are a number of other conditional uses permitted in this region including commercial feed lots, auction yards for farm animals and equipment, animal hospitals and kennels and other agri-adjacent businesses. Anyone looking to familiarize themselves with the AG-5 zoning ordinance is encouraged to read this PDF which is an excerpt from the County Zoning Ordinance.

RV Usage: Per the Humboldt County Zoning Office, RVs may be used for 30 days at a time in this region and longer with a building permit. For exact permitting requirements, buyers are encouraged to contact the Humboldt County Zoning Office directly.

The Hemingway Land Company does our best to represent the properties we list as accurately as possible. Our research, however, will always be limited. 

Because of this, included in the table to the right is a list of the relevant state and county governments, agencies and authorities as well as local utilities (and all their respective websites and contact information) which should help to answer any questions a buyer may have about developing this specific property.

Whenever possible it is best to speak with these agencies first as they will always be a far greater source of information about the local region and the regulations which govern it. 

Adjacent Lots: For anyone looking for a larger piece of property in this subdivision, it should be noted that Hemingway Land is also selling the adjacent lot to the immediate north of the subject property.

Nearby Towns: As noted, the subject property is located twenty miles north of the county seat of Winneumucca. Boasting a population of a little under 8,000, this quaint western town is home to a number of amenities including big box stores such as Walmart and Ace Hardware as well as fast food restaurants, casinos, stores and bars. In addition, this town is also home to a number of government services, schools, parks and churches, which should be a benefit for anyone looking to raise a family here.

Nearby Attractions: Despite its relatively rural setting, those buying land here will find a surprising amount to do in Northern Nevada. In addition to the town of Winnemucca, there's also the Rye Patch State Recreation Area, just down the highway outside of Lovelock, the Blackrock Desert Conservation Area, home to the annual Burning Man events, Lahontan State Recreation Area just outside of Fallon and Pyramid Lake just north of Fernley. In addition, the Reno/Tahoe Metro Area, home to plenty of resorts, casinos and world-class skiing is only two and a half hours west of the subject property and may prove an excellent resource for weekend getaways.
