If you don’t love cookie-cutter McHouses, you’re going to love this one. How do you feel about a one-story mid-century ranch? Yes, please! This entertainer’s dream sits on the backside of Mt. Helix on just over 1/2 an acre. Floor to ceiling windows allow for unobstructed southwest views. A nature lover’s paradise with tons of birds and wildlife. Established orange, lemon, fig and grapefruit trees give abundant fruit. Feels rural, yet city close and convenient to shopping and freeways. Huge wrap around deck with cover, perfect for relaxing with your favorite beverage in the mornings and evenings. Have out of town family or friends? Invite them to sleep in the king-size bed in the new, stationary guest trailer that is fully hooked up and equipped for visitors- allowing them their own privacy and space. Much of the not-so-fun home owner upgrades have been taken care of: New roof; huge new custom aluminum deck cover, with built-in lights; new central A/C; new split unit A/C in office/bedroom; new Belgard retaining walls; new exterior paint; entirely new septic system (tank and leech lines); new electrical panel set-up for future spa; 2000+ sq ft of Belgard pavers throughout front, side and back yard; and newer flooring and furnace to boot. Bonus: There’s tons of parking (which isn’t always the case in the Mt. Helix area). Come experience for yourself what a home with good energy feels like.
