Situated on an expansive 1/3-acre lot, the property is surrounded by mature landscaping featuring beautiful flowering shrubs, vibrant rose bushes, and established fruit trees that create a private garden-like atmosphere. Inside, the home is filled with natural light thanks to the large east-facing front windows, which welcome warm morning sunshine into the living spaces. The thoughtfully designed single-level floor plan offers both functionality and comfort, with spacious living areas ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike. The west-facing backyard serves as a peaceful retreat, framed by mature trees that provide privacy and shade throughout the day. A covered patio extends the living space outdoors, creating the perfect setting for quiet mornings with coffee, relaxing evenings watching the sunset, or year-round entertaining regardless of the weather.
