About This Home

As of February 2025

Home shop for a house with a shop in Minden. For sale now and for a limited time, buy this 2580-square-foot home in Cochran Estates with a packaging label listing 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an attached 2-car garage on 1 acre, and customized with kitchen updates, an oversized primary suite, RV parking, and more, and receive the included 2400-square-foot shop for work or for play as a bonus. Quantity is limited to one, so stop all other work shopping for a house and work quickly to build that winning offer. This MLS listing itemizes the property information similarly to a packaging label listing a product’s contents—it details the room types and features contained within the exterior’s brown walls and on the zeroscape needing near zero work. The builder’s grand plan for the great room includes a family room, kitchen, and dining room. The family room is equipped with a vaulted ceiling with fan, coat and storage closets, entry and patio doors, and ceramic tile and carpet flooring. A bonus is the wood-burning stove with its brick hearth and mantle. The kitchen was updated using these listed stainless-steel KitchenAid and LG appliances: 5-burner gas stove, gas oven x 2, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. Open hard the soft-close cabinets and drawers, all finished in rich brown. Mix rich brownie mix on granite countertops; wipe back batter splashed on tile backsplash, and rinse baking tools in the undermounted double sink with garbage disposal. Luxe vinyl plank flooring seamlessly stitches the kitchen to the pantry and laundry room combo with sufficient shelving and included washer and dryer, and to the dining room. The westward window of the dining room was enlarged to be an oversized picture window. A chandelier is tethered above an ideal place to place a dining table. The primary suite was added to the house as a 2007 addition and is built using the following parts: bedroom, bathroom, and walk-in closet. Rest in the southward, oversized primary bedroom that is larger than the rest of the bedrooms combined and comprised of these parts: ceiling fan x 2, entry door x 2, French doors, and carpet flooring. Clutch grab bars in the spacious stepless shower or next to the smart toilet in the oversized primary bathroom that includes a vanity with undermounted sink and granite countertop, linen cabinet, and ceramic tile flooring. Plenty of space is present in the walk-in closet to place a wardrobe; otherwise, place a wardrobe on the wrap-around shelf with hanging rod. 3 guest bedrooms also come with the home, each with a ceiling fan and carpet flooring. The guest bathroom has a bathtub and shower combo, vanity with undermounted sink and granite countertop, and vinyl plank flooring. A concrete driveway leads to the 2-car garage, an RV pull-thru passes around the house, and a large workshop provides space to work on cars or with tools. Build a shed with paddock to park a horse in the large back yard. Two cars can be parked in the attached garage which includes an automatic double garage door, built-in cabinets, and a water softener. Also included is the mechanical room containing a furnace, water heater with recirculation pump, well pump and pressure tank, and reverse osmosis sediment filter. Additional cars and toys, boats, trailers, and RVs can be parked through the 2 roll-up garage doors into the 60’ x 40’ workshop, or use that metal shop to fabricate using its air compressor, 50-amp and 30-amp outlets, 3 workbenches, 3 storage racks, and utility sink. This property already comes assembled using all these pieces and more, so place that best offer. Located in Cochran Estates, a 2-unit subdivision in the Johnson Lane area of Minden, Nevada, this house and workshop were built on lot 24 of 53 lots. Self-govern the property without the governance of CC&Rs or an HOA. Count all the nearby towns to travel to and cities to see in Nevada including Genoa (˜8.8 mi), Gardnerville (˜9.8 mi), Carson City (˜10.6 mi), Stateline (˜24.7 mi), Reno (˜4
