Rich wood floors, an updated cook's kitchen with a casual dining area and sun-filled glass-walled sunroom. A formal dining room, and an inviting living room with fireplace and wet bar showcase the home's blend of charm and functionality. French doors invite you into the re-landscaped grounds which feel like a private retreat, complete with a resistance pool, outdoor fireplace, rose garden, fruit trees, vegetable garden, chicken coop, all set against mountain views .The two bed/two bath guest house with new kitchen, cozy living room, private patio with bubbling fountain and its own washer dryer will keep guests returning.
