Tucked away in a hidden recess of Fortuna's Drake Hill Rd is a private paradise of quiet and peaceful beauty. This 2.1 acre estate lot boasts flats, hills, springs, creeks and abundant wildlife. The home while dated is a light and spacious 2400 sq ft four bed two and a half bath ranch style. From the kitchen sink, windows overlooking a creek and jaw dropping sunsets are framed by distant trees. The large kitchen/dining room flows into an open multi-windowed living room with plenty of room for entertaining. Four bedrooms on the West wing are spacious. One master/guest room features two closets and a private bath. Another larger bedroom could easily be split in two or another bath added. In the East wing is an oversized laundry/sewing room with plenty of storage and a door to the back deck. Behind the garage, a bonus room/shop is currently used as the master with views to green and a slider to another small deck. Much home improvement has been done; however with some finishing touches the home could be spectacular. With raw beauty all around, this property won't last long. Call your Realtor today.
