About This Home

As of July 2025

Charming one story home on one of Alta Sierra's most desirable locations that is ready to move in! Located at the end of the cul de sac and just past the 19th hole, this home was the model for the Alta Sierra Development and offers all the benefits of the perfect quality home! Formal entry leads you into the great room with vaulted ceilings and big picture windows that overlooks the amazing back yard with a fantastic in ground swimming pool, gazebo and two sweet workshops. The openness of this home is welcoming and bright and the kitchen is spacious, and has room for a large dining room table! 4 bedrooms including a generous master suite with multiple closets and easy access to the lovely back yard. 50 year old plantings of Azaleas, Rhododendron, and beautiful solar exposure invites the happy Gardner to enjoy hours of pleasure! New carpet, new interior paint and ready for your final touches. The level parcel is ideal and ready for a large RV and the driveway is circular. Generous two car garage with storage and workshop area. This home has been beautifully cared for for many years and is ready for a new family that will enjoy the exterior entertainment area as much as the interior! Some photos are virtually staged.
