Description
Note: this is a current ad, posted June 13, 2024. The photos are all unretouched, not stretched to make the rooms and property look larger.
Cozy home on two lots with large shop, completely fenced and deer proof!) ... plus additional adjoining lot which is buildable if combined with the other two parcels. It features nut trees (hazelnuts) and a pear tree, all produce well. A peacefully meandering irrigation canal borders two sides (no water rights but lovely to splash in on a warm day and livestock can water out of it.)
Remodeled, immaculate, unique home in a quiet neighborhood. 10,000 linear ft of 6' high cedar fence provides privacy. Front yard is landscaped with a lovely, low maintenance rock garden and several small trees. A huge maple in the back yard (professionally trimmed last fall) provides abundant shade during the summer months. Breezeway between the two buildings is screened at both ends and provides cooling airflow as well. Patio can easily be screened, as well.
The home is 872 square feet with one bedroom and one bathroom. New cabinets with nontoxic, 2 inch thick butcher block countertops. Kitchen sink, faucet, refrigerator and dishwasher all new. Bathroom features new-ish shower surround, new low-flush toilet and sink/vanity with new sink and faucet and extra storage cabinet and completely nontoxic Marmoleum brand flooring. Large remodeled laundry room with abundant storage, folding table and laundry sink. Adjacent closet is 8'4”x6'4” for clothing and even more storage. New PEX plumbing throughout. New paint (interior is zero VOC) and out. All windows are dual glazed and most are new. New insulated half-lite back door. A mini-split heat/cool unit rated for our climate keeps this all-electric home comfortable and our monthly electric bill is $110.
Natural gas capped in place at the perimeter of the house.
We use city water for the yard and in summer, even with extensive watering, our water bill only increases $10 over the base rate.
We use no artificially fragranced laundry or cleaning products since we are chemically sensitive.
The shop is 24'x36' and has a great man-cave/craft room plus a superinsulated separate storage room. Shop size could be expanded on the west side. It is plumbed for a wood heater.
Each of the three lots measures 50'x100' feet per the plat. The home and shop sit on two parcels at 100'x100', and the third 50'x100' parcel can be used to add an ADU or a larger home if combined with the other two parcels. Or, one horse is permitted on this size property if parcels are combined (per city, 10,000 Sq Ft is needed for livestock.) There's plenty of room for smaller livestock as well.
The greenhouse in the back yard next to the maple tree provides space for growing tender plants in early spring and late fall (we grew our own salad greens for two months this spring before it was warm enough to plant outside). In addition, a large (3'x12') raised bed filled with organic compost and planting medium sits at the west side of the garage. The flowerbeds next to the patio contain culinary herbs (also planted in organic soil). There's a great spot for a larger garden area near the SW corner of the house, for serious gardeners, and two frost-proof hydrants.
We're experienced at selling our own properties and always work through title company (escrow) to protect all parties' interests. If buyer brings their agent, ALL fees incurred will be the sole responsibility of the buyer.
