Set on 2.68 acres of rare, pancake-flat land, 4255 San Benito Road is a property that immediately invites possibility. The fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is move-in ready, blending modern comfort with timeless character. The 2025–26 remodel brought a fresh, cohesive, and thoughtfully designed feel to the home, with updates touching nearly every surface. This included new flooring, beautifully updated bathrooms, a kitchen upgrade with new appliances, fresh paint, and backyard landscaping. Beyond the 1,583-square-foot main residence, a charming 400-square-foot redwood building dating back to 1928, affectionately known as the "schoolhouse, " offers flexibility; it could be perfect as a studio, guest space, gym, or creative retreat. Two additional redwood structures provide even more room for storage, workshops, or future potential. From there, the property opens up, whether you envision horses, 4-H projects, an ADU, or simply space to grow, the flat, usable acreage gives you the freedom to bring your vision to life. The fully fenced backyard features a patio and garden beds, creating an inviting outdoor space for everyday living, while the acreage beyond becomes your canvas. Once a Christmas tree farm, the property still benefits from a well and irrigation infrastructure, ready to support whatever comes next. A rare combination of thoughtful updates, historic charm, and usable land, this is more than a home; it’s an opportunity to build something lasting and make it entirely your own.

Introducing "Sycamore Hollow", a versatile 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style residence situated on 3 level acres in Atascadero’s peaceful San Benito neighborhood. This unique property features nitrate-rich soil, ideal for growing melons, gourds, and other crops, and offers ample space for agricultural, equestrian, or recreational use. A newly installed well pump and a robust irrigation system support year-round productivity, while the zoning allows for up to three horses, three cattle, and a variety of other farm animals. The property includes five corrals, multiple outbuildings, a barn for equipment storage, and dual gated entrances for convenient access to the rear of the lot. Additional amenities include RV hookups, covered carports, and an attached two-car garage, providing abundant space for vehicles, trailers, or farm machinery. The home is served by both a private well and septic system, as well as city water, with potential for future connection to city sewer. Inside, the single-level layout offers vaulted ceilings, updated flooring, a whole-house fan, and wide archways that create a seamless flow between the living and kitchen areas. The kitchen is outfitted with matching stainless steel appliances, generous counter and cabinet space, a breakfast bar, and an adjacent dining area overlooking the front lawn. The living room is anchored by a brick fireplace and features surround sound speakers and direct access to the backyard—ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The primary suite includes large windows, a spacious ensuite bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and ample storage. Two additional guest bedrooms offer generous closet space and abundant natural light. Located on one of the largest parcels in the neighborhood, the property also presents a potential opportunity to add an ADU for multigenerational living, guests, or rental income (buyer to verify). With a rare combination of usable acreage, modern amenities, and agricultural potential, "Sycamore Hollow" offers a unique lifestyle opportunity in the heart of Atascadero.
