The light-filled, vintage stucco home is beautifully situated on a serene 2.5 acre setting. The property includes a separate building that was converted to a guest house 15 years ago with a kitchen, full bathroom, laundry, and fireplace. The large acreage provides opportunities for future development of the property. This once in a lifetime offering should not be overlooked.
