Inside, enjoy oak hardwood floors, plantation shutters, skylights, and a flexible layout with a dining room perfect for a home office or creative studio.

Both bedrooms feature en suite bathrooms, with the primary suite offering a private exterior entrance, walk-in shower, and premium finishes.

The drought-tolerant backyard is designed for entertaining and relaxing with raised garden beds, drip irrigation, a covered deck, gazebo, and tree house, all enclosed by new fencing. Additional updates include a seismic retrofit, fresh paint, and cork flooring in the bathrooms.
