It's common to say a house "will sell fast" and this one will! To be so close to town in this price range-only 7 miles-yet have the serenity, surroundings, and views of the countryside, is a rare treat for a home of this quality. And you can have horses, too! Built in 1990, this house was extensively remodeled in 2009 with additions such as hardwood floors, crown moldings, can lights, upgrades throughout. Enter into a living room/great room with lots of windows and light-pretty views out most all the windows, so private you barely need curtains. Open floor plan is great for entertaining, featuring 2 living and 2 eating areas, all of which flow so nicely together. You'll love this open floor plan. Paint and drywall throughout look brand-new with beautiful warm, neutral colors. Ideal-sized custom kitchen offers efficiency and a wonderful layout for any gourmet cook, design right from the pages of a decorating magazine. Slate floors, cabinet with pullout shelves, newer Jenn-Air stainless appliances, breakfast bar. Gorgeous slab-granite countertops, "farm" type sink great for bathing babies!

Once again, the house is so clean and immaculate inside, it shows like a model. Mud room off attached garage with powder room. Garage could even someday be converted to a FR with high ceilings, to add square footage. Not a cookie-cutter subdivision house, just minutes from downtown, Vallecito and Lemon, easy access to either urban or pristine locations. Perfect amount of snow at this elevation, not the higher maintenance of more elevation. Tall pines keep it cool in summer, large sunny garden area. Beautiful views of several mountains and ridges, watch elk all summer. Water from central well is part of the HOA, can be used to irrigate also. Seller owns property all the way to Florida for easy paved access year-round. Private E. facing outside deck gets lots of shade for your outside eating comfort.
