About This Home

As of June 2021

Paradise FOUND! Nestled at the end of a quiet, centrally located cul de sac in desirable San Marin, this is a beautiful oasis of a home. Its back yard, replete with impeccably maintained mature gardens, large patio deck, swimming pool and gazebo, also boasts a rose covered arbor and daybed to lounge and take it all in. You'll delight in the zero maintenance Zen garden that greets you as you approach the front entrance, and perhaps even more so since all of the expansive grounds are fully dripped! Did I mention the seven amazing fruit trees? French doors open onto the large back deck from the family room and expansive ensuite. This lovingly maintained home features premium flooring, dual pane windows, new AC with Airscrubber, new pool equipment including owned solar, new and newer appliances still under warranty, new gutters and roof (2017,) plus so much more! Huge bonus room and half bath upstairs aside, you'll enjoy single level living. Could this be YOUR forever home?!?
