Welcome to your California oasis -- a single-story ranch home on an expansive 16,000 sq ft lot where everyday living feels like a retreat. Private, sun-drenched, and surrounded by lush greenery, this 4 BD + 3 BA property blends comfort, versatility, and the kind of indoor-outdoor flow that defines life here. A thoughtful, permitted addition connects and functions like a second primary suite -- complete with its own entrance and kitchenette (refrigerator + sink + capped gas line). The Sellers have lived in this property as one house, but it could function as a 3+2 house and a 1+1 ADU. Ideal for multigenerational living, guests, or a luxurious primary retreat separate from the main sleeping wing. Two true primary-style suites give you the flexibility to choose how you want to live. Inside, the open-concept kitchen and dining area is perfect for gathering, while dual-sink vanities in two bathrooms and a warm, intuitive layout make daily living feel effortless. Dual-zone HVAC and both tankless + standard water heaters offer efficiency and comfort throughout the home. Outdoors, the property flourishes with mature avocado, fig, and multiple citrus trees plus tropical flowering plants -- a lush backdrop for relaxation. The large 10' x 20' storage structure provides excellent space for tools, toys, or hobbies, and there's a two-car garage, parking for up to 10 cars -- including room for an RV. Spend sunny days by the sparkling saltwater pool + spa, gather under the covered patio, and imagine the pool house transformed into a studio, gym, or creative space. Recently re-roofed, this 1948 home is a rare combination of space, possibility, and classic California ease -- ready for its next chapter.
