About This Home

As of August 2025

PRICED FOR OFFERS! GREAT BONES! SYSTEMS FUNCTIONING OPTIMALLY! JUST NEEDS COSMETIC UPDATES! Location! Location! Location! This wonderful single-story is on an idyllic, tree-lined, cul-de-sac street in one of Riverside’s most family-friendly and well-loved neighborhoods! On just under a half-acre, this property has been well-loved by the same family for 50 years and is looking for a new steward to call it "home". This home offers 1,861 sqft with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a formal entry, a spacious living room with gas fireplace, and an efficient kitchen featuring beautiful wood flooring, tasteful cabinets and a spacious dining area. The primary bedroom is amply-sized with sufficient closet space and an ensuite primary bathroom with walk-in shower. Three other bedrooms are well-proportioned and share the hall bathroom which offers a tub/shower combo. A permitted, oversized utility room was added several years ago and is adjacent to the kitchen making it an ideal children’s playroom, office, hobby room, work out room or possibly a 5th bedroom with some creativity. An attached 2 car garage faces to the side yard, creating privacy while tinkering or working in the garage. A long driveway provides tons of parking for cars and room for an RV, boat, or other recreational toys. The fully-fenced rear yard provides so much room for kids and/or pets to play, as well as space for a future ADU and/or pool. Enjoy parties and summer BBQs under an expansive patio cover along the side of the house, adjacent to the dining area and kitchen. Other amenities include dual pane windows throughout, top line Andersen wood sliders, central HVAC system, ceiling fans, long-life concrete tile roof, fully-irrigated yards with automatic sprinklers and more. This home offers a very affordable option to break into Canyon Crest homeownership and is just waiting for your imagination and inspiration. Despite its interior cosmetics, this home has been well-maintained and cared for. With a fresh coat of paint, new flooring and minimal other cosmetic updates you’ll be gaining instant equity! Bring your own personal touches and make it your own! A perfect investment for first-time homebuyers, downsizers or investors! NO HOA! LOW TAXES! NO MELLO ROOS!
