This home offers the best of both worlds - peaceful, private surroundings in a beautiful mountain setting with tall trees, occasional winter snow & quick access to shopping, freeway & year-round recreation. A flat driveway & generous parking make life simple, whether you're juggling cars, trailer, or guests arriving for a weekend stay. Inside, natural light streams through windows, highlighting hardwood floors in the kitchen & dining areas. The efficient floor plan includes 3 bedrooms, a spacious primary suite featuring a sitting area, huge closet, private deck access, and a bright bath with soaking tub & treetop views. The kitchen and bath have been updated with granite counters, fresh lighting, and a gas range for the cook who loves precision. Storage abounds - cabinets in the hall, garage space, & most impressively, a hidden gem beneath the home: a spacious workshop area. Perfect for woodworking, hobbies, or organizing mountain gear, it's every do-it-yourselfer's dream. Relax on the deck among forest views, or head to the Gold Ridge Forest clubhouse with pools, tennis, pickleball, bocce & disc golf. Nearby Sly Park and Jenkinson Lake add boating, hiking, biking, and kayaking. With low HOA dues, newer A/C, and endless storage, this is mountain living at its best. Come see!
