Remarks

As you approach the house on 42nd Avenue, you are charmed by the classic curb appeal of this California rancher. A fresh coat of exterior paint complemented by the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape, provides a serene and warm greeting to all visitors. As you enter the home, you can hear all the wonderful fun that continually filled this house, smell the aroma of family recipes simmering on the stove and feel the smiles of good times spent. The traditional 1950s floor plan maximizes both space and functionality. And thanks to the large picture window, the spacious living area boasts an abundance of natural light. Original hardwood floors, characteristic of the era, exude a timeless strength and character and provide a foundation for comfort and versatility of style. Inviting you to embrace a slower pace of life, the sprawling backyard is a haven for outdoor living and entertainment. The spacious patio is ideal or barbecues, outdoor dining or simply enjoying the fresh air.
