The home offers three bedrooms and two updated bathrooms, including a private primary suite. Just outside the primary suite, a versatile den provides valuable additional living space, ideal for a reading room, home office, or media lounge. Throughout the bedrooms, paneled accent walls and soft neutral finishes create a peaceful retreat.Outdoor living continues in the private backyard, where mature landscaping, multiple gathering areas, and a productive collection of fruit trees enhance everyday living. An expansive patio provides ample space for outdoor dining beneath the canopy of a Strawberry Tree, while the generous yard offers room to garden, play, or simply enjoy the Southern California climate. Fruit-bearing trees including navel orange, peach, passion fruit, pomegranate, pomelo, and lemon provide seasonal harvests throughout the year.Adding to the property’s appeal, the detached garage has been reimagined as a bonus space.
