[ SOLD for $465,000 on 6/17/2020 ] Lovely single story “Wood Streets” home, 3 bedrooms, 1.75 bathrooms, and approximately 1,900 sq ft, with a VIEW of Mount Rubidoux and city lights, situated at the end of a quiet cul de sac!
Original hardwood floors welcome you into the spacious living room with fireplace and crown moulding, then into the formal dining room which is adjacent to the remodeled kitchen with granite counters, dishwasher, built-in microwave over the gas stove, and a walk-in pantry. There is also a separate indoor laundry room including washer/dryer.
You can’t miss the bright and sprawling family room with wood-beamed ceiling and floor to ceiling windows overlooking the private back patio with koi and turtle pond.
The master bedroom suite boasts a remodeled private 3/4 bath with tile flooring. There’s also a hallway bathroom with shower in tub, large vanity, and tile flooring. One of the bedrooms even boasts a homemade Murphy bed.
In addition to a brand new A/C unit lat year, you’ll also benefit from a tankless water heater, huge finished basement (accessible via the lift-up floor in the pantry) which could be used as an office, gym, or play room with seemingly unending storage capacity, and an old school oil-changing pit in the attached 1.5-car garage!
You’re technically in the city, but you’ll feel like you’re in a mountain retreat with a front row view of the annual Mt. Rubidoux fireworks, mature shade trees, and numerous fruit trees such as mandarin orange, lemon, apples, and kumquat. The lot size is 9,148 (.21/acre) with a large side yard that is currently set up as a giant play area for children, but definitely room for a pool if desired. The custom-built and well-designed turtle and koi pond with waterfall and sandy sunning beach is easy and enjoyable to maintain, and provides hours of blissful entertainment!
What a unique one-of-a-kind find in the historic “Wood Streets” neighborhood! Invite friends and family over to watch the annual 4th of July fireworks from your sprawling front yard. Lots of outdoor entertaining possibilities.
