About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to 1281 Bennett Road – A Charming Slice of Paradise! This beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers 1,124 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space on a spacious 0.70-acre lot. From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the peaceful setting and filtered canyon views from the front porch. Step inside to find a warm and inviting living room featuring a stunning stone-surround wood-burning fireplace, recessed lighting, and brand-new flooring throughout the entire home. The kitchen and both bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled, offering a modern yet cozy feel that’s ready for you to move right in. One of the standout features of this property is the approx. 800 sq ft detached 3-car garage, complete with its own separate office space—perfect for a home-based business, workshop, or hobby area. Out back, enjoy quiet evenings on the covered patio overlooking your backyard oasis, which includes garden beds ready for your vegetables and fruits. There's also plenty of room for your RV, boat, or other recreational toys. As an added bonus, this property previously featured a 1 bed / 1 bath ADU that was lost in the Camp Fire—offering exciting potential for rebuilding and additional living space. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this rare find in Paradise. A turnkey home, flexible outdoor space, and endless potential—all in one!
