Property Description
Nearly two acres in Rancho San Antonio doesn't come up very often. This one just did. Built for the family that still calls it home and offered here for the first time, this single-level home sits on 1.9 acres(+/-) of mature live oak land with the kind of privacy that makes you forget neighbors exist. Outside the sense of space is immediate. No fence lines confining the property, no neighbors in sight on either side. Just open land anchored by mature live oaks that give the property a permanence that newer developments simply cannot replicate. Inside and spanning almost 2,100 square feet, the home lives comfortably with generous room sizes, vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, and a layout that simply works. Outfitted with cherry wood cabinetry throughout the kitchen, a convenient mud room, and a massive two-car garage equipped to store your cars with plenty of storage to spare. The care taken over nearly three decades shows in every corner. The lot has real potential too. There is ample room for an ADU, a pool, or both, and the grounds feel established and settled, the way only decades of stewardship can produce. Close enough to town to be convenient, zoned for the Mountain View School attendance area, and private enough to feel like you've left everything behind.
