Remarks

Discover tranquil country living in this charming single-story ranch home nestled on over a half acre in the sought-after Crest community. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home captures west-facing views—enjoy vibrant sunsets from your living room or relax on the covered front porch while taking in the scenery. On clear days you can even see the ocean from this home. The home features upgraded flooring installed in 2022 and energy-efficient double-paned windows throughout (excluding the garage). The fully gated property offers privacy and a peaceful, serene setting. A thoughtfully converted garage provides valuable additional living space, adding a bedroom and bonus living area. A detached structure offers endless potential—perfect for a future ADU, workshop, art studio, craft room, or home office (Buyer to verify city zoning and permits). Square footage, lot size, and all measurements are approximate. Buyer is advised to independently verify all information, permits, and uses prior to closing.
