Offer pending w/ 72 hr clause . .. Known for decades as 'The Rock House of Ranchita', a craftsman left some beautiful stonework outside the home and a fireplace for new owners to now enjoy. Not too long ago he also remodeled the kitchen with very nice custom cabinets and and artistic open beamed ceiling. (see supp) [Supplement]: The newer kitchen (new dishwasher and disposal)compliments the original knotty pine living room also with an open beamed ceiling. Down a couple steps are two bedrooms with closet organizers and good storage throughout. A nice laundry room is off the kitchen and there are two full baths. The present owners have it immaculate and freshly painted outside. There are lots of windows to enjoy the park-like setting sheltered under a canopy of mature oak trees. It is very inviting for entertaining outside with the casual country atmosphere. You drive in to a paved driveway with lots of good parking plus an attached two-car carport that is enclosed on three sides. There are also two outdoor sheds - one has the potential of being remodeled into an office, guest room, or workshop (yes VERY rustic & lots of work but the square footage is there and it could be quite charming refinishing that original wood floor. .. ) The back of the property is truly like a park, completely undeveloped and could be great for horses with the Pacific Crest Trail nearby. However, the recent Pines fire did burn into the property and burn the grass around the trees at the back. The fire did not do any damage at all. The homes on either side of the property looks undamaged also. Directions: From Hwy S22 take Montezuma Valley Road 3.3 miles to the home on your left. You will pass Old Mine Road, pass the double dome house, then a modular home with a brown wooden fence. The driveway is on the other side of the wooden fence on your left. Please see Conf. remarks for code for code box. (Pull the door toward you and turn the key. ) Thank you for showing - let's open escrow!
