Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and shows pride of ownership with several significant upgrades, including bamboo flooring throughout most of the home, fully paid-off solar panels, and a primary ensuite with luxury heated floors. While the kitchen cabinetry and some appliances appear dated, and popcorn ceilings are present, the overall maintenance is excellent. The exterior is well-kept with a large covered patio and versatile parking options, meeting the criteria for a well-maintained home with functional major systems.
The expansive loft and wraparound balcony offer sweeping hill views and flexible space for entertainment, a home office, or a game room, significantly increasing the home's functional square footage.
The property includes fully paid-off solar panels, providing the new owner with immediate and long-term savings on utility costs while enhancing the home's sustainability profile.
A rare combination of a wide driveway, two-car garage, and dedicated RV/boat parking provides exceptional utility for homeowners with multiple vehicles or outdoor recreational equipment.
Despite the generous 2,036 square footage, the home only features three private bedrooms, which may be a constraint for larger families or those requiring more enclosed rooms rather than open loft space.
Built in 1966, the property may eventually require updates to original structural or mechanical systems that are common in homes of this era, despite the modern cosmetic upgrades.
