About This Home

As of June 2025

Location, Location in MURPHYS. Adorable 2 bedroom 1 bath cottage just a short stroll to all that Murphys has to offer (shops, restaurants, and wine tasting rooms!) Upgraded throughout and with a well-designed floor plan, you'll find the bright, retro-inspired kitchen with quartz countertops and dining area perfect for entertaining. The bathroom has a large shower with nice water pressure, and a tankless water heater provides all the hot water you'll need. Hardwood floors through out most of the house, a free-standing Lopi/Berkshire gas stove/fireplace for additional warmth and ambiance, and a spacious laundry room with built-in shelves, a counter for folding clothes and a desk area with a 4-plug USB outlet for charging your electronic devices. Plenty of storage, too, including a closet organizer system in the primary bedroom and a walk-in closet in the 2nd bedroom. Central heat and air keeps the temp perfect year-round, and a whole-house generator ensures the power stays on regardless of what Mother Nature may have in store. For those who love to tinker, a separate two-car garage with shop area features storage cabinets and a spacious work counter for all your projects. Nestled on a level, fenced-in lot with park-like landscaping and an automatic irrigation system, you will also enjoy relaxing on the large covered patio with adjacent water fountain. Perfect for anyone looking for a beautiful spot to call home! This is a "must see" property that provides updated charm, coziness and convenience! Some furniture is negotiable.
