**A rare opportunity to build your country dream on a one-of-a-kind homesite in one of Merced's established rural neighborhoods.** Once the site of a cherished family home where a pony grazed and memories were made, this approximately one-acre parcel is ready for its next chapter. Imagine designing the modern farmhouse you've always envisioned, adding a spacious shop, creating gardens, enjoying wide-open skies, or simply having room to live the way you want, all while being just minutes from downtown Merced, UC Merced, Mercy Medical Center, Highway 99, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences. Unlike many vacant parcels, this homesite offers something that's difficult to recreate: a history of home, an established setting, and the opportunity to build without sacrificing location. Surrounded by attractive country properties, it provides the peaceful feeling of rural living with the convenience of city amenities nearby. As Merced continues to grow, buildable homesites in established country locations are becoming increasingly limited. Whether you're ready to build now or planning for the future, this property offers the chance to create something uniquely your own. Bring your vision and write the next chapter of this special property.
