Newly listed, move in ready single story home located on a large lot with plenty of space for an ADU, pool, or detached structure in the Twin Oaks Valley of San Marcos. Let's start with the location. The home sits on the West side of Twin Oaks Valley Road, removed and insulated well from traffic by foliage and the frontage road. State route 78 and Interstate 15 are a few minutes away so heading in any direction is very convenient. In addition, everything you need is close by including schools, churches, grocery stores, local gyms and restaurants, etc. The home is estimated at 1,500 square feet with 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a 2 car garage situated on a large 0.44 acre parcel which leaves a lot of usable space in the backyard and behind the home. The kitchen has been updated with newer cabinetry including pull out shelving, easy close doors and "Lazy Susan" shelving for an abundance of storage. The countertops were updated to quartz and all of the appliances are in great shape. I love how versatile the main living area is in this home. Just off the updated kitchen is a spacious dining room, a family room with a two sided fireplace, and a separate living room. The footprint is modest but laid out well with a very functional floor plan. The bedrooms are all well sized and located down the hall for added privacy. The guest bath was remodeled in 2019 with all new fixtures, counters and tub enclosure. The primary bedroom has an en-suite bath along with direct access to the side yard. Additional upgrades to the interior include new easy care luxury vinyl plank flooring, new ceiling fans, the interior was scraped of the old popcorn style ceiling and repainted, the interior of the garage has been finished and painted for a fresh, clean look. Outside the owners have replaced the rear lawn and updated the landscaping, installed new rain gutters, newer fencing and rebuilt the storage shed. This home is turn key inside and out with several nice features. The parcel size and extra space around the exterior of this home are sure to attract a lot of interest. The yard is deep and wide in a rectangle shape with the home sitting towards the front. Behind the home is a spacious backyard with mature trees and landscaping. Behind that backyard is another fully fenced off space roughly 60' wide and 100' long where previous owners have had horses. Some neighbors have terraced this area for gardening, it would be ideal for an ADU/guest house, a pool, detached shop, or just extra storage. The driveway leads from the front of the home all the way to the back of the parcel so access is easy, and the home is on sewer, not septic so expanding the size or adding an ADU will not require any septic work. 1538 Twin Oaks Valley Road is a wonderful home, it is upgraded nicely and priced to sell. Interested parties are encourage to attend one of our open houses or visit the dedicated website to view the virtual tour and all of the details.
