A crisp study in Mid-Century Modern simplicity, 2811 May Road blends form and function with timeless appeal. Set on a sunny, oversized lot, this three-bedroom, one-bath, single-level May Valley home offers classic design and smart updates for modern living. A low-slung profile and wide eaves highlight the architectural integrity, while dual-pane windows deliver energy efficiency and clarity throughout. The refreshed kitchen features refinished cabinetry, new stainless steel appliances, and a cozy dining nook bathed in morning light. A spacious rear family room offers flexibility apart from the formal living space—ideal for entertaining or unwinding. The renovated bath adds a touch of luxury with marble tile, tall ceilings, and a skylight. Outside, a covered deck extends the living space, while raised garden beds encourage weekend projects. A one-car garage, extended driveway, and even enough parking for an RV/boat, enhance the home’s utility. With a thoughtful layout, clean material palette, and ample outdoor space, this home captures the enduring spirit of California Modernism—livable, stylish, and effortlessly functional.

Single Family Low Density Residential District
This district is intended for low density residential development with attached and detached single-family homes in level to moderately sloped areas. Dwelling types also may include small lot single unit development, duplexes, townhomes, cottages, bungalows, and second units. Density in this zoning district is a maximum of 15 du per acre. In addition to single-unit homes, this district provides for compatible, supportive uses, such as small family day care, park and recreation facilities, civic and institutional uses, including schools and places for community assembly that may be appropriate in a single-family residential neighborhood, and community gardens. Neighborhood mixed-use development is allowed at neighborhood nodes identified by the Planning Commission. Existing multi-family residential structures may remain and may be improved without increasing densities, or may revert to single-family residential uses.
