About This Home

As of July 2017

Space! Quality! VIEW! Tired of tiny houses on tiny lots looking straight at the back of a neighbor's garage? Then you will love this open & flexible single level ready for everyone & everything you want in a home. Start right at the front curb where an oh-so handy turn-around driveway makes coming & going a breeze, rest a while on the sweet front patio, revel in the great flow from living/dining/family room & right out to your lush green yard, brand new garage & more open space ready for gardening, play & party time & all surrounded by an inspirational mountain view so close you feel like you can reach out & touch it. PLUS! Check out the possibility of adding a granny flat to this 12,000 Sq. Ft. lot. Check with the County to learn your options or just go out there and have all the fun a great big back yard can bring for years to come! Toss that football, hide those Easter Eggs, maybe even a pool! Welcome HOME!
