Showcase for serenity! Bring your vision and inspiration to this custom tile and stucco showstopper spanning 9.29 acres with dramatic views, sophisticated amenities and exceptional high end potential. The picturesque property has lost its luster over the years and needs some renovation to restore its sparkle and shine. The expansive, partially fenced land features traces of a small vineyard, pond site and orchard plus room for animals, agriculture and outbuildings. The refined residence with a distinctive design has brand new HVAC and all the necessary elements in place to refresh and renew and return the handsome homestead to its former showpiece status. Special touches include a generous Great Room with soaring ceilings, wood stove and hardwood floors, large primary suite, and two attached but completely self-contained studio apartments with individual outside entrances that offer incredible versatility for guests, rentals, or a home based business. The main living space has 1 bedroom, 1.5 bathrooms and also features a cozy alcove for an office and basement storage. The studio apartments are under the same roof but have their own entrances separate from the main living area. Stone patios deliver an impressive vantage point for panoramic vistas overlooking Lake Englebright, distant mountains and adjacent foothills. Located in a premiere rural neighborhood with paved road access, this architectural gem is near shopping, services, schools and several lakes and is a convenient commute to urban centers.
