Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from April 22, 2024
On a small street at the top of Redwood Heights, tucked against the trees, lies this home of exceptional serenity. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a 6,030 square foot lot are the facts. But what is special here lies beyond that. It’s morning coffee in front of the kitchen window, watching the birds start the day. Finding peace in your garden planting vegetables or harvesting fruit from your fruit trees. Napping under your magnolia within the scent of roses adorning your back deck. Entertaining or just getting cozy in your large den. This is a home that feels like home, a place of refuge, style, and life.
