250 E Blaine St, Riverside, CA 92507

If you are looking for a resort feel just minutes from shopping, transportation, UCR, and more, then this is your home. This mid-century ranch is situated near the end of Blaine Street which leads to the hiking trailhead of the Box Springs Mountains. The location gives you splendid views of the mountains! The home sits back from the street and is shielded by shade trees. The entry courtyard makes for a nice sitting area as well as a welcoming porch to the home. As you enter the home, the updated kitchen is to your right, the living room is straight ahead and the bedroom hallway is to your left. There are updated, double pane windows throughout the home which helps it stay cool year-round. The kitchen has solid wood cabinets, granite counters, and a patterned brick floor. The dining area picture window lets in light and provides a lovely view of the backyard and deck. In the living room, the brick floors continue, and a large wood-burning fireplace is the center point of the room. The sliding door to the back deck brings in light and opens the room to the outdoors. The bedrooms are all roomy and have plenty of closet and storage space. The hall bathroom has been updated with custom slate tile on the walls and the shower floor. This home may need a little TLC but the bones are good. The Water Heater and roof have been replaced in the past 5 years, and the HVAC works well. The backyard is a joy with multiple fruit trees including peach, avocado, orange, grapefruit, and tangerine. Enjoy the back deck with views of the mountains as the moon rises in the East. The garage has been converted to a workshop room. It is a great space for completing projects or creating an exercise room or art studio. Close to everything, you will genuinely enjoy the rural feel of this Belvedere Heights beauty.
