New black-on-black windows and hardwood floors give the entire home a clean, cohesive feel. Every bedroom has its own door outside. Two bedrooms face the open views, while the primary suite sits quietly toward the back of the home with direct access to a private patio. Its remodeled bathroom features a large walk-in shower. The fourth bedroom, closer to the front of the house, is a natural fit for a home office with warm wood-paneled walls. Then step outside. The large, level, fenced lawn gives kids and dogs plenty of room to RUN, with space for soccer practice, backyard games, entertaining, or simply enjoying the outdoors. Three mature persimmon trees add a little something delicious, while the surrounding acreage provides privacy and space. And yes, the driveway is actually easy! It’s wide, with plenty of room for guest parking and a large flat area at the top where you can comfortably turn around instead of backing down the hill. An attached 3-car garage provides even more parking and storage. Recently remodeled inside and out, with replaced Simonton energy-efficient windows and sliders, new decks, remodeled kitchen and baths, new central heat and AC, new HVAC ducting, a roof from 2020, and clean inspection reports, all of the work is already behind you.
