Welcome to 12500 Cenegal, a truly rare offering tucked within the highly sought-after Paradise Valley area of Atascadero. Set on just over 3 picturesque acres, this thoughtfully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers a lifestyle that feels worlds away- yet still close to everything. Surrounded by majestic oaks and sycamores, with a seasonal creek meandering through the property, the setting is nothing short of magical. Deer wander through, wild turkeys pass by, and every corner of the land invites you to slow down and take it all in. The grounds are a masterpiece of design and care- reminiscent of a storybook English garden. Meander along flagstone pathways past a dry creek bed, koi pond, blooming roses, and vibrant seasonal flowers, all creating a private, park-like oasis that feels both curated and completely natural. Follow the wisteria-covered path to a true showstopper: a beautiful, fully renovated, 1840s antique hand-hewn timber frame barn relocated from New York. It was completed with a loft and is currently enjoyed as a stunning entertaining space. Whether you envision gatherings, a studio, or something entirely your own, the possibilities here are endless. Additional features include a detached accessory building with two separate rooms, ideal for a home office, creative space, or guest overflow. Inside, the home has been tastefully updated with a refreshed kitchen and bathrooms, along with a flexible bonus space perfect for a den, office, bedroom or additional living area. Properties like this are more than homes- they’re legacy opportunities. A place to gather, create, and enjoy for years to come. Come experience the beauty and serenity of 12500 Cenegal, this is one you truly have to see to believe.
