Each of the three bedrooms is bright and generously sized, including a primary suite that offers its own private bathroom and direct glass-door access to the outdoor retreat. The backyard is nothing short of a private oasis. A sprawling deck provides the perfect vantage point to soak in the neighborhood views while relaxing or entertaining. Below, a paved, covered patio offers a cool escape next to a majestic California Oak and fresh greenery. The centerpiece of the outdoor experience is the sparkling, private pool, a secluded sanctuary perfect for cooling off on sunny afternoons.
