Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled on nearly half an acre in the desirable Arrowhead subdivision. With approximately 1,675 square feet of thoughtfully renovated living space, this property seamlessly blends modern upgrades with comfort and functionality. Step inside to discover new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, a completely remodeled kitchen featuring sleek cabinets, countertops, and stainless steel appliances, and a primary suite that has been reimagined with two custom closets, a stylish tiled shower, shiplap accents, and all-new trim to match the home's fresh finish. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a spacious new deck perfect for weekend barbecues and a large screened porch ideal for entertaining or enjoying a relaxing evening watching your favorite movie or game. The roof, installed in 2020, features triple-laminated shingles over an ice and water shield—built to high standards, providing the durability of a fortified roof without the formal certification. Additional exterior improvements include new gutters, energy-efficient windows, and updated doors. One of the standout features of this property is the detached approximately 625 sq. ft. Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), complete with one bedroom, one bathroom, a full kitchen, and laundry facilities. Updated in 2017 with new countertops, siding and roof, the ADU offers a flexible space perfect for extended family, guests, or even potential rental income. While the ADU appears unpermitted, the county has no records available prior to 2014 for review. For added storage and versatility, the property also includes three large storage sheds—ideal for workshop space, hobby use, or simply keeping your tools and toys organized. Don't miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind property with multi-use potential and quality upgrades throughout. Schedule your private showing today before it's gone!

R-10
Residential-10 District
The purpose of the Residential-10 (R-10) District is to provide lands that accommodate new residential neighborhoods and encourage the conservation of existing residential lots and neighborhoods. Neighborhoods in the R-10 District are relatively low density in character and include a limited mix of single family and duplex housing types. If public water is not available, the water system infrastructure must be installed in accordance with County standards and connected when a public supply becomes available. R-10 district lands may be established in proximity to neighborhood or community commercial districts to encourage the establishment of walkable development patterns.
