The original hardwood floors run throughout, and the kitchen offers a nod to the past with restored 1960s cabinetry and generous storage. A separate dining room with sliders opens to a small concrete patio perfect for your morning coffee or potted garden.

Currently configured as three bedrooms plus a cozy, built-in office (that could easily be a fourth bedroom), the layout is both functional and flexible. Each bedroom has its own updated en-suite bath and walk-in closet, and skylights throughout even in the bathrooms enhance the home's airy feel and fill it with sunshine throughout the day.
Outside, enjoy mature landscaping, quiet moments by the creek, and plenty of room to entertain, play, or just breathe.

An attached 2-car garage, successful Airbnb history, and negotiable furnishings make this home an incredible opportunity whether for your personal retreat or investment.
