Description

This executive single-story home offers nearly 2,500 sq ft of living space in Riverside’s highly desirable Wood Streets neighborhood—an uncommon find for the area. Featuring 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a versatile bonus room ideal for guest quarters, a fourth bedroom, home office, or gym, the layout provides exceptional flexibility. An exterior electric chair lift offers convenient access from the garage to the home if needed. Set at the far edge of the neighborhood on an off-the-beaten-path street, the property enjoys privacy with no rear neighbors, hillside positioning, and distant mountain views. Interior highlights include central air and heat, a remodeled kitchen, breakfast nook, formal dining room with built-in cabinetry, step-down family room, French doors, ceiling fans, two fireplaces, and custom built-ins throughout. Additional amenities include an alarm system, gated RV and additional parking, and a 2-car garage. The large lot (.41/acre), partially set on a hillside, offers ample opportunity for fruit trees, gardens, or lush landscaping. A former spa area has been thoughtfully replaced with a serene water fountain. Ideally located within walking distance to RCC, Central Middle School, Eden Lutheran Church, and Riverside Community Hospital, and just minutes from downtown Riverside and the Riverside Plaza, this one-of-a-kind home blends space, privacy, and location in one of Riverside’s most sought-after neighborhoods.

    "I've lived in quite a few cities in SoCal and this neighborhood is the best experience I've had. I moved here with my young son in 2018 and don't plan on leaving anytime soon. Not only is the scenery beautiful but it's family oriented, safe to walk at night, and the schools are amazing. the homes are vintage and have won Neighborhood of the Year many times. I am happy to call Downtown Riverside my home. "

R'mountain is a grate place to hike many go up for a nice fresh view up the mountain to see the city lights and unique view. And if your not a walker you could always go though the Santana Bike trail and test your self how far you could go. It's an active location and could always find something to do; with friendly a neighborhood everybody is welcomed "
