Enjoy the best of Ashland living in this inviting single-level home in the sought-after Mountain Ranch subdivision, where open spaces, beautiful surroundings, and easy access to nature come together. An open floor plan connects the kitchen and living area, warmed by a cozy fireplace, with two sets of sliding doors opening to the backyard. Recent improvements include a 50-year roof, simulated wood flooring, new countertops and dishwasher, plus granite bathroom counters and raised vanities. Step onto the deck for peaceful meadow views with the Greensprings in the distance and association-maintained common areas adjoining the property. The landscaped, gently sloped lot offers raised garden beds, TID irrigation, and front and back sprinklers -- framed by mature trees, open greenways, and underground utilities, with walking trails nearby, including the Oredson-Todd Woods trailhead.
