Park
with its hiking trails and wildlife. The seller has landscaped the front of the house, putting in flowering, drought-tolerant plants on a drip system. There are also fruit trees and even a macadamia nut tree.
The property has RV parking and a 2-car garage with hookups for washer and dryer. Behind the garage, there’s a small gated area that can serve as a dog run. There’s a small patio off the kitchen as well as other spaces for outdoor seating, such as behind the house, when having guests over for a barbecue.
Not all of the neighbors are of the hominid variety. While I was taking these photos, a fox came through the garden and then walked along the top of the back wall, heading toward his den.
The house has hardwood floors, and in the living room and entryway, the floor is made up of wide, sturdy planks. On one side, the living room has big picture windows that look out to the garden while sliding glass doors lead to the patio off the driveway on the other. It has a fireplace for cozy winter nights, enough space for dining, and a built-in book case. On summer evenings, it’s pleasant to sit outside the front door and enjoy the garden and hills by moonlight.
The kitchen features wood cabinets, tile countertops, and the reverse side of the living room book case with plenty of shelves for cookbooks and knickknacks.
The house has 2 good-sized bedrooms on either side of a full bath. Both bedrooms feature hardwood floors with and built-ins for clothing. A tall, wood cabinet for linens and personal items will remain in the bathroom.
