Property is move-in ready.
Despite being built in 1953, the property is well-maintained and move-in ready. It features upgraded modern systems including central air conditioning, heating, and enhanced insulation. The interior boasts excellent hardwood flooring, and while the kitchen finishes appear slightly dated (likely a 10-15 year old renovation), it remains highly functional and clean.
Middle School: Newcomb Academy (9/10).
As a Cliff May designed home, the property features iconic mid-century modern aesthetics and a seamless indoor-outdoor connection that is highly coveted in the Rancho Estates.
At 1,606 square feet, this home is significantly larger than the standard Rancho model, offering thoughtfully enlarged rooms and enhanced closet space for superior functionality.
The list price of $1.448M reflects a high price-per-square-foot, which may limit the buyer pool to specific mid-century modern enthusiasts rather than general market buyers.
Despite interior modernizations, the 1953 build date implies that underlying systems like original plumbing or electrical may eventually require attention common to homes of this vintage.
With more than 1,600 square feet of living space, a nearly 6,000-square-foot lot, and a spacious detached two-car garage, this Cliff May Rancho offers an uncommon amount of space. The living room, kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms have all been thoughtfully enlarged, with enhanced closet space adding to the home’s functionality. Modern comforts include central air conditioning and heat, along with upgraded insulation for improved temperature control and greater energy efficiency. Set in a quiet interior location within the Rancho Estates, the property features a large, private front yard with lawn, a generous patio for outdoor entertaining, and the seamless indoor-outdoor connection that is central to Cliff May’s design philosophy. Move-in ready while offering plenty of opportunity for personalization and creative expression, this home combines space, comfort, and architectural character in one of Southern California’s most closely knit, peaceful, and distinctive communities.
