Not in a hurry? Great—this home may be a perfect fit. This is a short sale, so buyers should anticipate a longer escrow period, but we already have strong communication established with the lender, helping to streamline the approval process. Subject to bank approval. Welcome to a peaceful retreat tucked beneath the pines—a cozy cottage that feels worlds away while still offering quick access to town conveniences. Set on one acre, this property provides a wonderful sense of space, mature trees, and the charm of a seasonal creek nearby. A portion of the property is fenced, making it ideal for pets, and the circular driveway has been refreshed with gravel, creating smooth access even during the rainy months. There’s generous parking, room for trailers or recreational toys, and a powered, insulated shed that can serve as storage, workshop space, or a creative hideaway. Step onto the screened-in front porch, perfect for morning coffee, evening meals, or simply listening to the quiet sounds of the forest. Inside, the home features a welcoming living room with vinyl wood-look flooring, a wood stove, and a mini-split system in both bedrooms and living areas for efficient heating and cooling. Firewood is already split and stacked on-site for the next owner’s convenience. The kitchen includes solid-surface counters and essential appliances including a newer refrigerator and range. Seller was told when he purchased the home that a new composition roof was installed at the end of 2021 (done above code) and that over $3,000 of electrical upgrades were completed in 2022, including a new panel and a dedicated generator outlet. Wildlife sightings are common—deer, quail, and the occasional winter snowfall add to the cozy mountain feel, while shaded summer afternoons make this a comfortable year-round getaway. If you’re seeking a quiet, affordable foothill property with character, modern updates, and room to breathe, 14540 Wood Drive offers a wonderful opportunity.
