This owner built, approximately 1700 square foot home was solidly constructed twelve years ago utilizing 2'x6' construction on a fiber-mesh re-enforced slab. A very nice feature of this home is the all weather protected alcove at the entry, especially on those rainy days.
The Owner/Builder/Seller did things right including all 5/8ths inch sheetrock throughout and of course 5/8ths 'greenboard' for all bathroom areas. The kitchen and baths feature all Kohler fixtures and there are Hunter Fans in both the Living Room and Master bedroom. One very nice feature the owner took into account when building was the access to the plumbing for the showers and the raised tub with ceramic tile surround in the Master bath.
The 'heart' redwood constructed porch overhang just off the living room is a fabulous feature of this home year-round! In summer escape the heat and sun of those hot August days (this feature also keeps the house much cooler all summer long, leading to reduced energy bills!) and all winter there is a substantial area well protected from the rainy days allowing for multiple uses all year round.

As necessary, access to these areas is very simple. Some other features of this home are the Central Vac system, dual pane Milgard windows throughout, vapor barriers under garage and an oversized leach field as well as oversized footings for the slab.

• All copper piping,
• DirecTV Dish on roof,
• Solid wood doors throughout,
• Forced air central heat and AC,
• a 10'x16' bonus room off the garage (great office space!),
• utilities undergrounded at front fence so no PG&E man wondering around the property.
This home has been landscaped in the front-yard area with an eye towards zero maintenance and zero water costs. The front yard is gated and includes about 5 fruit trees as well as a trellis of grapes offering three different varietals. The backyard here is a real gem! We're talking lots of useable space here for a myriad of possible projects. To the right center of the yard is the fenced garden area that includes raised beds harboring Garlic, Onions and Strawberries. There are also numerous fruit trees, both here and in the front yard totalling 2 Cherry trees, 3 Plums, 5 different kinds of Apples plus Peach Pear and Almond trees as well Plenty of gardening available here! There's tons of room here... ever contemplated a swimming pool? This would be a beautiful improvement to this wonderful home and property. Looking the opposite direction towards the seasonal creek that provides the western boundary, one can see the little storage shed, aprox. 10'x14' and beyond that there is actually a small little fenced area that would be good for something needing a 'pen'! Off to the left one can see the beautiful and very large Oaks that are lining the creek area.
SOLD! Price: $529,000.00
