Welcome to this beautifully maintained single-story home nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Almaden Valley. Offering approximately 1,840± square feet of light-filled living space on an expansive 8,064± square foot lot, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence has been lovingly cared for and meticulously improved by the same owners for 22 years. The remodeled eat-in kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a striking blue glass tile backsplash. Adjacent, the family room offers custom built-in buffet cabinetry with abundant storage and display shelving and flows seamlessly into the step-down living room, where a dual-sided gas fireplace creates a warm gathering space. Milgard sliding glass doors open to a private backyard with an expansive patio, low-maintenance artificial turf, and mature lemon, orange, and lime trees. Recent improvements include a new roof (2026), new HVAC ductwork, new copper water service line, pressure reducing valve, remodeled bathrooms, hardwood floors, dual-pane Milgard windows, central air conditioning, and more. Conveniently located near Los Alamitos Elementary (buyer to verify), parks, hiking trails, shopping, dining, and major commute routes.
