This is a wonderful opportunity to own a home with a large parcel of land in a quiet, desirable area, yet still close to shopping and freeways. This serene country setting offers trees, fresh air, birds and other wildlife while relaxing in the back yard, and there's room for improvements such as horse setup, garden and trees, or even an additional home to be built. The interior offers great natural lighting, large rooms and a efficient floorplan. It has dual pane windows throughout. The home is move-in ready, giving the new owner time for updating and improvement at their leisure. This one level home has never been on the market, having been in the family for over 50 years. This can be the home of your dreams - come make it yours!
