Here is a great family home on a dead-end street that backs up to a creek with redwood trees. The back yard is an oasis. You can listen to the frogs sing at night. The livingroom has a large brick fireplace with a new woodstove insert which heats the house nicely. The two sliding glass doors to the back yard allow plenty of light and sunshine. Come enjoy the small town, friendly atmosphere with just about anything you need close by.
End of the road privacy and a large yard with greenbelt backyard, is what you will find in this sunny Rio Dell location. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, wood floors, large living room with hearth fireplace, and a slider to the back patio leading out to the yard. Dining room and kitchen are open and spacious. Backyard is fully fences with lots of open space mature landscaping and fruit trees. House has a 2 car garage with a 1/2 bath and lots of room next to it for an extra RV parking space if you need it. Cul-de-sac location and a creek running behind the property you will feel like you have endless privacy right in the heart of town. Estate sale would prefer an ''as is'' sale.
