About This Home

As of November 2025

Opportunity of a lifetime for the hobbyist, car enthusiast, collector, or lover of recreational "toys"!! Featuring a massive 4-car garage/shop that is insulated and heated, and leads into an attached storage shed! Add to that a separate one-car insulated garage that could easily be a party place, man-cave, or she-shed. All of this perched on an oversize lot at the edge of Mendota with vista views and a pleasing sense of privacy. The solid 3-4 bedroom house boasts a multitude of valuable updates - new roofs (house, 2020, garages in '23 and '24), fully renovated bathroom, Trane A/C and furnace in '22, new shop heater, plus doors, paint, flooring, blinds, ceiling fans . . . the list goes on and testifies to the care that has been taken to make this a move-in-ready Home for you. The appealing kitchen offers a plethora of windows and expansive counter space, including a breakfast bar. The roomy main-floor living areas give more than enough space for a full variety of uses - dining, lounging, game room, office space. A sunny enclosed front porch and a practical-but-attractive mud room complete the picture. The master bedroom features unique built-ins and a massive amount of closet space. Need single-level living? This house delivers. But there's more! Upstairs, you find that the rooms form a spacious suite of living area, or the option to use as two separate bedrooms. Outside, you'll enjoy the large wooden deck with adjoining concrete patio area - instantly ready for solitary relaxation or hosting Fall cookouts! This is a rare find in a sparse field of listings - grab it now!
