Remarks

Santa Venetia living is a joy!! Especially in this secluded eastern section of single-family homes, with immediate access for walking /hiking the levies of Las Gallinas creek. This 2bed 2 bath 1460 Sq ft home has a lovely pool with towering palm trees to keep you in the vacation mode for most of the day! The quietude is only interrupted by an amazing number of happy birds chirping away in this wonderful setting. The one level home has a feeling of Vacation''. Sliding glass doors open to the pool and a big back yard. When out by the pool, views are of distant hills. The neighborhood has very little traffic and a wonderful community park, 3 doors down. The tennis/pickle ball, basketball courts, swings and a grassy area are frequented by all the neighbors. Dog walking is a must in this animal friendly neighborhood. This house is a must see if you are looking for a spot to raise a family with easy access to Venetia Valley School, Hwy101 and the farmers' market.
