Also, downstairs, the remodel adds a bedroom suite with family ADU potential, an entertainment space, kitchenette, and flex spaces for a gym, media room, or playroom. Outside, the half-acre backyard is a retreat that shines as an entertainer’s dream. Enjoy a huge resurfaced two-level deck, romantic cafe lighting, a 9-hole putting green, hot tub, play structure, plus a chicken house and run—all surrounded by lush, intentional landscaping with earthy, natural vibes.
