The home features an impressive 2,273 square foot floor plan with mahogany walls, formal living and dining rooms, a den, a kitchen with nook, 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths on the main level. Downstairs an enormous basement, with high ceilings and possible ADU expansion* nearly the same size as the home, presents a myriad of options. The large down-slope lot spanning 16,968 square feet (per public record) provides ample garden and entertainment space. Bonus points for being within the Madera School district just a few blocks away!* *Buyers to verify.
