This is the kind of small-acreage foothill property buyers are actively searching for: private, efficient, and truly move-in ready. The approach sets the tone immediately. A quiet country lane winds past rolling countryside and peaceful ponds with ducks and geese, creating a genuine sense of calm and arrival. Inside, the home feels warm, functional, and thoughtfully designed. The spacious kitchen is a standout, featuring a large walk-in pantry rarely found in homes of this size. The layout maximizes space and flow, making everyday living feel easy and intentional. French doors open directly to the front yard, providing seamless indoor-outdoor living. This is ideal for enjoying morning coffee, hosting casual entertaining, or keeping an eye on pets while you cook. The primary bedroom features sliding glass doors that open to a fenced backyard. One of the property's most special features sits just outside. A massive mature Modesto Ash tree with rope swings anchors the yard, offering shade, character, and beautiful seasonal color. It is the kind of feature that turns a house into a place people remember. The land is fully usable and set up for immediate enjoyment. A large metal workshop and garage with concrete flooring and a separate electrical panel provides excellent space for storage, hobbies, or creative projects. The fenced backyard, established garden, and two chicken coops are already in place, making this an ideal setup for buyers seeking a homestead, ranchette, or self-sufficient foothill lifestyle. Recent upgrades include a new well pump, new flooring, and fresh interior paint. Additional improvements over the past few years include mini split heating and cooling, a dishwasher, solar panels, and updated copper plumbing and piping. This Mountain Ranch property checks the boxes buyers care about: usable acreage, privacy, solar, modern systems, and charm without high maintenance. Small house. Big lifestyle. Thoughtfully improved foothill living, ready to enjoy.
