Description

Rare opportunity in San Carlos to transform and expand an existing 1,605 SF home into a spectacular 2,685 SF custom residence.

The approved design features open-concept living, designer finishes, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to landscaped front and rear yards. Modern farmhouse style includes a white exterior, black-framed windows, and a black roof. An exceptional opportunity for an end-user or developer, with fully approved plans.
