Though you will feel like you live hours away from the Bay Area busyness, you're but minutes away from 680, 580 and 84 and only about 30 minutes from any of the three major airports. Abundant flat areas as well as a gentle sloping 200+ mature olive tree grove paradise. Enjoy the plentiful work areas, the rugged barn as well as the workshops. Prime horse property too! Myriad of possibilities - use your imagination! The home: 3,100+ square foot & single-level. It boasts an excellent floor plan and is ready for a complete remodel to your personal taste. Owners have owned this gem for 40+ years so now is your very rare opportunity to own a gorgeous park-like oasis and still live & work in the Bay Area :)
