562 Sunset Drive is a single-level 4-bedroom, 2-bath home set on a quiet North Merced street where life feels easy and familiar. The living room fireplace creates a natural gathering spot, and the primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet with plenty of space. Out back, a covered patio opens to a yard filled with fruit trees and flowering plants—great for weekend barbecues, kids at play, or enjoying a little fresh air after a long day. The location is hard to beat, just down the street from Dignity Health Medical Center, minutes from UC Merced, and within walking distance to Peterson Elementary. Raley’s and Sprouts are close by, making daily errands simple and convenient. A solid opportunity to settle into a home with room to grow and a yard to enjoy.
