Perched above the valley with exceptional privacy, this custom-built single-story home is on the market for the first time. Located in a peaceful neighborhood of long-time residents with pride of ownership—and no HOA—the property offers sweeping, unobstructed views from nearly every room. Inside, expansive picture windows and sliding doors frame the dramatic vistas the moment you walk in. The spacious living room features a custom stone fireplace, a wet bar, and direct access to the massive covered wrap-around deck, recently sealed and ideal for entertaining, sunset dinners, or quiet mornings with coffee. The kitchen and family room include new luxury vinyl plank flooring along with a newer oven, GE Profile refrigerator, and induction cooktop. The family room also offers a built-in entertainment center and desk area with large windows showcasing the one-of-a-kind view. The primary suite includes its own slider to the deck, and the oversized primary bathroom features brand-new luxury plank flooring, an oversized walk-in shower, and dual sinks. Additional bathrooms have also been tastefully updated. Upgrades completed in 2025 include fresh interior and exterior paint, a new HVAC system installed in July 2025, a new water heater in August 2025, a new water softener, and dual-pane windows throughout (except the living-room picture windows). Exterior features include covered RV parking, a large fenced dog run, and a newly finished garage floor. This is a rare opportunity to own a lovingly maintained, view-filled home in a serene, established neighborhood.

Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1975, this property has undergone extensive recent upgrades in 2025, including a new HVAC system, water heater, dual-pane windows, and fresh paint, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances and new luxury vinyl plank flooring, and the primary bathroom has been significantly updated with new flooring and an oversized walk-in shower. However, the kitchen's traditional wood cabinets and mosaic backsplash, along with some specific tile choices in other bathrooms, and the living room's carpet and traditional light fixtures, prevent it from meeting the 'virtually new' aesthetic standard required for an 'Excellent' rating, despite the functional updates.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 48787, living area = 2057.
Panoramic Views & Privacy: The property offers sweeping, unobstructed valley views from nearly every room, enhanced by expansive windows, and boasts exceptional privacy due to its elevated position.
Extensive Recent Upgrades: Significant upgrades completed in 2025 include a new HVAC system, water heater, water softener, fresh interior/exterior paint, and dual-pane windows throughout (except living room picture windows).
No HOA & Established Neighborhood: Located in a peaceful, pride-of-ownership neighborhood with long-time residents and no homeowner's association, offering greater freedom and potentially lower monthly costs.
Spacious Outdoor Entertaining: Features a massive, recently sealed, covered wrap-around deck, ideal for entertaining, dining, and enjoying the dramatic vistas.
Updated Interior & Practical Amenities: Key interior spaces like the kitchen and family room have new luxury vinyl plank flooring and newer appliances, bathrooms are tastefully updated, and exterior includes covered RV parking, a fenced dog run, and a newly finished garage floor.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 4.
Original Construction Age: Built in 1975, despite recent upgrades, the underlying structure's age may present considerations regarding original plumbing, electrical systems, or a layout that might not fully align with modern open-concept preferences.
Non-Dual Pane Living Room Windows: The expansive picture windows in the main living room are explicitly noted as not being dual-pane, which could impact energy efficiency and sound insulation in this primary gathering space.
Potential for Remote Access: Being 'perched above the valley' for exceptional views and privacy may imply a less convenient, potentially steep access road or a greater distance from immediate commercial amenities and services.
