Sierra Springs Home for Sale | Pollock Pines CA 95726 | Custom Built in 2019, Views, 2 Acres

Sierra Springs homes for sale in Pollock Pines, California rarely arrive with a 2019 build date. Most of what reaches the market in this El Dorado County neighborhood dates to the 1970s and 1980s, when Sierra Nevada foothill living first became a year-round option for Sacramento-area families. That context matters here: 5031 Shooting Star Road is a custom-built home constructed with modern mountain standards, listed at $499,000, in a zip code (95726) where new custom construction and older inventory are still priced surprisingly close together.

Three bedrooms plus a main-level office. Two full baths. Two half baths. 2,037 square feet on 2 acres. HOA $63 per month. No Mello Roos.

The Saturday Morning This Home Was Built For

Your Saturday at 5031 Shooting Star Road starts in a kitchen that knows what it's doing. Granite counters run the full work area. The island with dining bar gives you a second surface and the first gathering point of the morning. The appliances are high-end stainless throughout.

What you won't find in most kitchens at this price point: picture windows above the sink that frame wooded Sierra Nevada hills and open sky. You're cooking toward a view that actually earns attention.

From the great room, the wraparound deck is one step away. It runs along the front, side, and back of the home. From it, rolling wooded hills spread in every direction, and the western orientation means the sunsets are a daily event worth stopping for. Below the deck, a fenced quarter-acre backyard gives you a flat, usable outdoor space. Beyond that, a full wooded acre slopes down and away: complete privacy from neighbors, and a standing supply of firewood you'll actually burn.

Two Sierra Nevada acres at an elevation where the air is cooler, the stars are brighter, and a Saturday afternoon on the deck is its own destination. The Sierra Springs HOA adds two community pools, a lodge, tennis and pickleball courts, a basketball court, and community hiking trails, all for $63 per month.

When the day winds down, your main-level owner's suite is waiting. Walk-in shower with granite finishes. Generous walk-in closet. Direct wraparound deck access, so the last thing before turning in is the same view that started your morning. The finishes are deliberate. This wasn't built to flip.

Property Details

The Kitchen: Granite, Views, and Island Dining

The kitchen at 5031 Shooting Star Road is the social center of the main level. Granite counters run the full length of the work area, and the island with dining bar gives you a second surface and the first gathering spot of the morning. The appliances are high-end stainless throughout. What makes this kitchen specific to this home: picture windows frame wooded Sierra Nevada hills and open sky, the kind of view you're not expecting to look up and find in a working kitchen. The great room is directly adjacent, and from there, the three-sided wraparound deck is one step away.

Outdoor Living: A Three-Sided Deck and Two Acres of Sierra Privacy

The wraparound deck runs along the front, side, and back of the home. From it, rolling wooded hills spread in every direction, with a western orientation that delivers consistent evening light and proper sunsets. Below the deck, a fenced quarter-acre backyard anchors the usable outdoor space, flat and functional for a fire pit, garden beds, or whatever the weekend calls for. Beyond that, a full wooded acre slopes away from the house: no neighbors visible through the trees, and a natural supply of firewood the previous owner has already used. This lot is genuinely two acres in El Dorado County. Jon Yoffie and Yoffie Real Estate Group have worked with buyers across the Sierra foothills; this kind of privacy at this price point in Pollock Pines is worth noting.

The Owner’s Suite: Main Level, Deck Access, Deliberate Finishes

The owner’s suite is on the main level, with direct access to the wraparound deck. The ensuite has a walk-in shower with granite finishes, consistent with the kitchen quality level throughout the home. The walk-in closet is generously sized. The suite is quiet, private, and positioned so the last thing before turning in and the first thing in the morning both come with the same hill view.
