This amazing three bedroom and two full bath home sits on 2 acres! This home has two fully remodeled bathrooms and a fresh coat of paint inside and out. This home backs to a seasonal creek and has a private screened in balcony off the master. The kitchen opens to the family room for a great open concept. The three stall horse barn also has a loft, perfect for a kids hideaway. Garden beds and private clearings make for some amazing spaces. Plenty of space underneath the house for a shop to tinker in, or to store wines and have wine tastings in and so much more....

This beautiful cottage-like home in an isolated neighborhood of Martinez has a great vibe and quaint feeling about it. The lot size is very large, although most of the space is on a hill in the backyard on the over side of the river.
