Resort-like hillside home with heated pool and spa. Amazing views on a quiet, private, no outlet street with great neighbors.

Underground utilities make for an amazing 180 degree view overlooking Winter Gardens and Eucalyptus Hills to Iron Mountain and Mount Woodson. Large parking pad for 3 cars plus boat/rv parking at street level with water spigot. Upgraded kitchen with custom cabinets, granite counters and all stainless steel appliances.

Entry, hall and large dining room feature hand hewned wood plank looking ceramic tile for a luxurious look with durability. Huge living room with wood/gas fireplace has solid exposed beam and incredible sunset views, with access to the large balcony offering even more views and a peaceful escape for morning coffee, watching local hawks and other wildlife or star gazing at night. Outside, the pool and spa have all new equipment, including programmable variable speed pump, gas heater and filter unit, as well as a Dolphin robotic pool cleaner, remote controlled multi-colored pool light and new pool tools. The backyard is fully fenced with separate dog run on side. There is a multipurpose storage/workshop/pool house with extended patio cover to finish as you see fit. New smart 8-zone sprinkler controller and valves. Fully owned solar w/ smart inverter results in near zero electric bills. Central heat and air conditioning with a new smart thermostat, plus a whole house fan and an automatic attic fan keep the house comfortable throughout the year, plus the large living room ceiling fan with remote and ceiling fans with lights in every bedroom provide added comfort. All windows are dual-paned and energy efficient, providing added cost savings, comfort and quiet. Full-sized newer front loading washer with steam and electric dryer also convey, along with a new (stil in unopened box) hybrid (heat pump/element) water heater, that requires a new dedicated electrical connection. Other new items include a smart video doorbell, carbon monoxide detector, designer switches with dining room dimmer, motion activated hall, stairway and kitchen under-cabinet lights. Motion activated security lights at the garage, stairs and front door. Solar lights in the front planter and along the driveway. Low maintenance, mostly succulent, landscaping with low water demand. This amazing property is move-in ready with opportunities to make finishing touches at your leisure. Priced below market, sellers are motivated to sacrifice it as they downsize.
