Buyer has performed. Escrow not cancelling. Short Sale. This is a real "sleeper" - over 2300 SF, with drop-dead gorgeous new kitchen (granite counters, Dacor range/oven, all stainless, new cabinets), new family room w/ soaring ceilings and fireplace w/ fan, and detached office/shed w/ elect & tele. [Supplement]: Many, many upgrades. Very private location, yet handy to I-15. Family room was built without permit. Seller says the ridge beam must be replaced with glue-lam beam in order to get permitted. Plans available to review. Also, this home has no forced air. Seller has priced complete HVAC retrofit at $8k. Horses welcome. The kitchen is fabulous. New family room is enormous and perfectly located off dining and kitchen. Bath 2 upgraded as well. Seller currently operates business from property, with one office in garage and one detached office near excess parking area (which would make a nice horse area). Let me tell you about the pool. Seller is a pool contractor. He has constructed a beautiful vanishing-edge pool and spa through the shotcrete phase - all fully permitted. This represents $40,000 value in the ground. Seller can provide a visual representation of completed pool and spa. Beautiful.

RR
Rural Residential District
The RR Use Regulations are intended to create and enhance residential areas where agricultural use compatible with a dominant, permanent residential use is desired. Typically, the RR Use Regulations would be applied to rural or semi-rural areas where urban levels of service are not available and where large lots are desired. Various applications of the RR Use Regulations with appropriate development designators can create buffers between residential and agricultural uses, family or small farm areas, or large lot rural residential developments.
