About this home

Rare historic redevelopment opportunity in the heart of Historic Jamestown. The Ramirez/Carboni House and Garden, built circa 1876 during the Mother Lode era, sits just steps from iconic Main Street and is identified in historic resource surveys as one of Jamestown’s early surviving residences. The commercially zoned property sits on a 0.25-acre lot with public water and sewer, offering exceptional potential for restoration, redevelopment, or creative commercial use. The Carboni House, approximately 1,355 sq ft (buyer to verify), was impacted by fire and the interior has been fully gutted, creating a blank canvas for restoration while preserving the historic structure. A separate 500 sq ft building, originally the historic carriage house, offers additional possibilities for office, studio, retail, or other commercial uses. The property also includes onsite parking for approximately 3–4 vehicles, a rare convenience for a downtown property. With its expansive garden setting and location in historic downtown Jamestown, the property offers exciting potential for an indoor-outdoor restaurant, beer garden, event venue, boutique retail space, office, or other creative concept. Not a turnkey project, but a rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a piece of California Gold Country history.
