About This Home

Nestled in the rolling hills of Spring Valley, 3261 Kenora Drive is a striking contemporary estate that perfectly balances expansive living space with the tranquility of a semi-rural retreat. Boasting an impressive 3,538 square feet of interior living area, this custom-built residence (c. 1990) offers a rare combination of scale and versatility on a generous 0.77-acre lot.
Property Highlights

• Gourmet Essentials: The interior is designed for comfort, featuring central air conditioning, forced-air heating, and a cozy fireplace that serves as a focal point for the main living area.
• Outdoor Potential: Situated on nearly an acre of level-to-rolling land, the property offers a massive canvas for outdoor amenities, whether you envision a private pool, an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), or expansive xeriscaping.
• Ample Parking: The property includes a dedicated garage and a spacious driveway, offering plenty of room for multiple vehicles, an RV, or boat storage.
Located in the 91977 zip code, this home offers a "best of both worlds" location.
