About This Home

Recent upgrades include a new septic pump and electrical system, leaf guard gutters, a fully remodeled ADU, and fresh sod enhancing the front lawn’s curb appeal.

The living room is anchored by a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. The kitchen is designed for both function and style, featuring an eat bar, built-in appliances, and exceptional custom wood cabinetry that highlights the home’s attention to detail.
