Lots & land
The foothills are full of buildable land - a legacy of the big mid-century subdivisions like Indian Lakes Estates and Yosemite Lakes Park. If you want to build, there's opportunity here; just buy with your eyes open.
What's out there
- One-acre homesites in established subdivisions (Indian Lakes Estates, Yosemite Lakes Park) - utilities often nearby.
- Larger parcels & ranch land around O'Neals, Raymond, and North Fork - more acreage, fewer services.
- View lots on the ridgelines above Oakhurst and Ahwahnee.
Before you make an offer
Raw land is only as good as its water, access, and buildability. Walk through the checklist in our buyer's guide - well (or the cost to drill one), septic and a perc test, the parcel's CAL FIRE hazard zone, legal access, and slope. A local agent and the Madera County planning department are your friends here.
