Nestled at the end of a serene cul-de-sac atop a quiet hill, this unique mid-century home sits on a spacious 0.67-acre parcel and offers sweeping views from every angle—including the rare treat of seeing four different fireworks shows on the 4th of July. With its elevated setting and panoramic outlook, the property offers peace, privacy, and an unforgettable vantage point. Thoughtfully designed, the living room is a true mid-century showstopper—boasting vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, a cozy wood-burning stove, and a stunning wall of glass that frames the picturesque landscape beyond. The kitchen, featuring sleek stainless steel appliances along with plenty of storage and prep space, is a joy for any homecook. Step outside to enjoy the ultimate in relaxation with a private jacuzzi, or explore the grounds, where a variety of fruit trees await—16 Hass avocado, 2 lemon, 2 grapefruit, 2 pomegranate, 5 mandarin tangerine, 3 Valencia orange, 3 navel orange, and a sweet lime. This property also offers thoughtful functionality throughout, with RV parking conveniently located next to the over-sized garage, a spacious laundry room with ample storage, and both attic and lower-level storage areas to keep everything organized. An additional outdoor shed provides a perfect spot for garden tools or yard equipment. With room to add a pool and plenty of space to entertain, relax, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings, this mid-century gem is a rare find where comfort, beauty, and potential come together.
