Talk about opportunity! This 3 bedroom/2 bathroom home is located on 5 acres of prime NR(5) zoned property in Valley Acres. Metal beams comprise the framework throughout the house, making it structurally more earthquake resistant than usual. The roof has 30 years left on its certification, there are six 30 amp outlets spread across the property, public water is supplied to ten irrigation valves and the septic tank has never had a problem. There is RV parking, a community airstrip about half a mile down the road and a work shed along with the gazebo are nice additions as well. The zoning makes this a wonderful place for livestock and growing the perfect garden! Along the front west side, the owners have plenty of shade provided by pines, eucalyptus and several other trees they planted over 30 years ago. And, at this time, there is nothing else for sale in the immediate area. Come and take a look
