About This Home
Welcome to 81 Rooney: An extensively remodeled single story turnkey home that has been reimagined inside and out. Inside we have two large living spaces: The first is a living/family room with a beautiful bay window. The second is open concept connecting with the kitchen and dining area and contains the only original feature of this 1970s home, a rustic wall to wall brick laid fireplace. The kitchen includes a butcher block island, quartz counters, a built-in bar, large pantry, and shiny stainless steel appliances. Venture down the long hallway to three oversized bedrooms with tasteful finishes and recessed lighting. The two car garage is fully finished with drywall, epoxy, washer/dryer, utility sink and custom work benches. Step out onto a 50 foot patio centered around an outdoor kitchen including a BBQ, sink, fridge and shaded by a 16 foot Redwood Pergola. Two symmetric stairways lead to a massive professionally installed turf lawn (always green!) boarded by Lemon, Lime, Pineapple Guava, Pear and Nectarine trees. The last 1/3 of the yard is flat sunny and ready for your imagination! You can add a pool, an ADU, 3 sheds, 4 sheds, a batting cage, pickle ball court, gazebo, spa, YOU NAME IT, (buyer to verify)! With so much more to talk about, we will see you at the open house!
