3284 Stretch Bring a swimsuit. Leave the afternoon open. "Come over for a bit" has a way of turning into the whole day here. Set on nearly an acre in Merced, 3284 Stretch Road is a place you'll want to share-and occasionally keep all to yourself. Spend the afternoon in the pool, bring dinner out to the rustic barn, and settle in by the fire pit when the evening cools down. With exposed wood rafters, vintage sliding doors, and a bar-style counter, the barn deserves more than a passing look. The single-story home offers five bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, and approximately 2, 968 square feet. White kitchen cabinetry, double ovens, shutters, and a whitewashed brick fireplace make the everyday spaces inviting, too. The solar is paid off. Before the company arrives, there's coffee beside the garden pond, shade beneath mature trees, and oranges, lemons, and pomegranates growing in your own yard. Come walk the property. See who you start imagining around the table.
