Nestled at the end of the road, this tastefully appointed 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat offers the perfect blend of modern updates and rustic charm on a 2.2 acre lot, just enough land for outdoor living, curated gardens, and the native landscape to thrive. Only 1.5 miles from the heart of downtown Murphys for your tasting-room strolls, retail therapy and sweet & savory delights, this property promises ultimate relaxation with jaw-dropping sunrise views peeking over the rolling Sierra foothills. Inside, a modest 1,400 square-foot layout feels expansive and inviting, thanks to vaulted ceilings and a high bay window that floods the space with natural light, creating a bright and airy ambiance year-round. Unwind in the living room by the sleek Danish woodstove on crisp evenings, or retreat to the cozy den loft for movie nights. At the heart of the home, a chef's kitchen with high-end appliances and honed granite countertops add a touch of sophistication. Whether you're hosting intimate gatherings in the dining area or savoring solo mornings with coffee at the peninsula, every detail whispers elegance and ease. Outside, paradise unfolds - and it's the crown jewel. Lounge by the sparkling plunge pool, gather under oak shade trees, gazebos, or fire up the grill in the dedicated outdoor dining area. Multiple gathering spots - from fire-pit nooks to tranquil patios - beckon for al fresco adventures with friends and family, while the raised-bed vegetable garden area and greenhouse are calling out for your green thumb. Practical perks abound with a 2-car garage, climate-controlled insulated she-shed office for seamless remote work, utility building with hobby space and storage, plus an additional outbuilding for all your toys and gear. Your own private well with 5,000 gallons of water storage and an automatic backup generator keep you showered, powered, and prepared for anything. This isn't just a home - it's a lifestyle. Are you ready to claim your slice of gold country magic? Schedule a private tour today.
