Set on a full acre in the Hiouchi area—one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Del Norte County—435 Bell Hole Loop offers an exceptionally built custom home that reflects pride of ownership, thoughtful design, and a lifestyle centered on space, privacy, and quality construction. Located in a peaceful rural setting just minutes from Crescent City, this property provides a rare balance of seclusion and convenience. Built in 2014, this single-level residence features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, plus a large office, with approximately 2,023 square feet of comfortable and functional living space. The layout is well suited for full-time living while offering flexibility for work-from-home or guest use. In addition to the main living area, the home includes a dedicated utility room and a substantial man cave located beneath the house, providing an oversized bonus space that is nearly the footprint of the home itself. This lower-level area offers exceptional flexibility for recreation, hobbies, creative use, or long-term storage, without being represented as finished living space. A standout feature of the property is the three-bay attached garage totaling nearly 1,500 square feet, offering abundant room for vehicles, projects, equipment, or small business use. Complementing the garage is a detached approximately 646-square-foot shop, further expanding the property's utility and storage capacity. Together, these spaces provide an extraordinary amount of covered workspace and storage rarely found in properties of this size. Interior highlights include walk-in closets, a walk-in shower, wet bar, pantry, ceiling fans throughout, and oversized windows that capture the tranquility of the surrounding setting. A wood stove adds warmth and character to the home. Outdoor living is equally inviting, featuring a wraparound cedar deck ideal for enjoying the morning sun as it filters through mature redwoods. The landscaped grounds offer a truly park-like setting, with fenced garden areas, and road access from both sides of the property, providing exceptional flexibility and opportunity. Located just minutes from the river bar on the legendary Smith River, this is a special home that truly allows you to experience, at the highest level, all that Del Norte County has to offer.
