About this home

This spacious home is a nature lovers delight! The .29 acre tree studded lot slopes to a dry creek bed in a broad field that offers a wonderland for kids /cats to explore, and is a 3 block walk to beautiful Windmill Run Park, a 50 acre park featuring hiking paths, climbing structures, jungle gyms ,swings, and picnic tables - dogs allowed. The 2 car garage was converted by previous owners to a bedroom, living room, and small office room, adjacent to a full bath. There is a separate entrance, with the potential to add a kitchenette that could bring rent income, or an apartment to accomodate an extended family, your college age kid, or even for a home business. Recent upgrades include new carpet on stairs, upstairs, and in the conversion, a new Carrier central air and heat system ( aug 2026). Electrical service panel was replaced in 2025 and has a transfer switch and generator plug so you can be ready for any power outages, 30 year dimensional shingle roof was installed in 2021, gas water heater was installed in 2020 . Previous owners had installed vinyl sash insulated windows and sliding doors, and resided the exterior with hardisiding. The kitchen includes TWO pantry closets, a Kenmore stainless steel lined dishwasher, 5 burner gas stove , 1 year old GE french door fridge with bottom freezer and icemaker w/warranty. The living room is large and has a brick fireplace with raised hearth that is decorative only. Upstairs, you will find 2 master suites and another bedroom. The larger master has french doors opening to a balcony with a view of the open land maintained by the city , providing a great buffer between you and the homes behind it. The yard would require a fence at the back if you need to enclose dogs. There are metal posts for a fence down both sides of the lot ( the neighbors on both sides have existing fences.) The neighborhood has Google Fiber and underground utilities, and is convenient to nearby shopping, dining ,entertainment and recreation.
