About This Home
As of November 2024Welcome to a true time capsule, lovingly cared for by Grandma, and a backyard mechanic/amateur race car driver, for the past 40 years! With plenty of potential for sweat equity, this home offers charm and room to make it your own. Some great features include Boat/RV parking, a second garage/shop with water and electricity, and a long concrete driveway leading to the shop. Owned solar panels, dual-pane windows, and other valuable upgrades have already been added, including a new HVAC system and fences in 2016, a sump pump and French drain in 2014, and an upgraded electrical panel. Enjoy the large backyard with mature landscaping, and a covered patio. Inside are 2 spacious living areas for all your family gatherings. Nestled in a quiet area, this home is within walking distance to Hidden Valley Park and school and is close to trails, shopping, transportation, and freeway access. This is a rare find with space, location, and potential – a wonderful opportunity to create a home you’ll love for years!
