Extraordinarily charming single level Spanish cottage rests among an organic "suburban farm" that has been lovingly cultivated by original owners. The yard is a veritable food forest with 9 citrus, 3 nectarine, 2 apple, 2 peach, 6 banana (3 varieties), plum, papaya, almond, fig, and persimmon trees. Step through the rustic front gate and discover winding paths that lead past inviting sitting areas to more than a dozen keyhole and tabletop planters bursting with fresh produce. Rest under the covered patio or relax in the soothing spa as you watch butterflies dance through the air and hot air balloons rise in the sky. As the nights cool, enjoy conversations around the cozy firepit. Owners have lived on this property more than three decades, and hand selected this lot for its privacy as well as its direct access to acres of open space directly behind the lot. They especially enjoy the view of the mature oak tree that stands majestically in the adjacent park. The warm and inviting residence was designed to evoke the look and feel of a Spanish casita. Character rich Saltillo tile floors complement the faux painted walls. The center island kitchen boasts granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and is surrounded by views of the lush gardens and outdoor space. The master suite features a stylish custom master bath reminiscent of Mexican adobes. The master bedroom has direct access to the backyard, covered patio, and romantic spa. This eco-friendly home has leased solar, 1500 gallon rain capture system with 2hp electric pump and hose bib, three organic composting bins, two electric car chargers, and dual pane windows.
