What I love about the homeWe love the quiet country atmosphere so close to town. We can drive to most places in town in 6 or 7 minutes, or bicycle; a great gas saver. Our neighbors all have a minimum of 4-5 acre places, and so there is much privacy. Due to the year-round creek and many trees and shrubs, we enjoy the abundant wildlife that proliferate here; deer, quail, pheasants and many other birds, raccoons, coyotes, foxes, even a black bear in a tree by the creek this spring! We can be nearly self-sustaining here as our garden has wonderful soil and raises astounding, bountiful crops each season.and we raise chickens for meat and eggs, and feeder calves in the spring for beef. In past years we have had milk cows and raised hogs,and beef for market. We also love the opportunity for outdoor exercise right out our door. We walk a quarter mile up our road and can hike up into the foothills, or going the other direction, bicycle or walk the 1/2 mile to Riverside Park and beyond on fairly quiet country roads.. This is a wonderful, unique suburban property that has numerous possibilities for income production, as well as allowing for a year-round sustainable lifestyle. 04/16/15
