Your Own California Island For $2.8 Million

It sounds too good to be true, a mansion on top of a hill on your own island in Northern California for $2.8 million. The island, isn't on the ocean, it's in Lake Shastina, a relatively remote area 270 miles north of San Francisco at the base of beautiful Mt. Shasta. The 75 acre island has a 10,000 sq. ft. mansion with scenic views in all directions. The island is connected to the mainland by a private causeway for year round motor access and the nearest neighbor is more than a mile away. It's a good thing the home has such stunning views because you probably wouldn't want to be looking inside. The six bedroom home is a monument to the tacky. Wall-to-wall carpets, far too much 1970s styled wood paneling, deeply dated window treatment and a kitchen that have seen better days all combine to make this house an ideal decorator fix-up. The home's website has all the eye-blistering details.  The home has three stories including an elevator and there is a housekeeper apartment, pool, sauna, decks and a four car garage.
