This upgraded, 4bed/3bath, 2,212 sq ft single story home is nestled on a flat, usable, 2.5 acres at the end of a private road in the beautiful community of Valley Center. Located approx. 5.2 miles from the 15 freeway, the setting feels rural yet is still close to everything! The home features 40 freestanding solar panels which are owned, not leased. The owners have not had an electric bill since they were installed just over a year ago and there is more than enough power if you are looking to add on an ADU. Inside, you will love the open concept floorplan where the kitchen truly is the center of the home. The living room features a cozy fireplace which can be enjoyed from the kitchen while preparing a meal. The upgraded kitchen includes white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, ss appliances, a single bowl sink, and large center island. The spacious dining area will accomodate a large table and has an extra nook for a coffee bar, hutch or even a home office with french doors leading out to the back patio. The 3 guest bedrooms, one full bath, and the laundry room are located on one side of the home and the primary suite is located on the other end of the home offering that sought-after separation and privacy. The over-sized, primary suite includes double-door entry, high ceilings, and a sliding glass door out to the back patio. The spacious primary bath boasts a large shower, separate soaking tub, and dual vanity with quartz countertops. There is a 3rd full bath just off the kitchen for guests. The expansive backyard has a beautifully landscaped area with horse rail fencing, terraced planter beds, a wooden arch and market lights strung overhead - a wonderful backdrop to host an evening with friends and family or maybe even a wedding! The home is on propane, although most everything in the home is electric, and a newer septic system was installed roughly 3 years ago. There is also an enclosed storage area that is approx 20x12 with a newer Shelter Lodgic cover. The possibilities are endless with this property so if you are looking for a great home with a little elbow room, this might just be the perfect time to make a move to Valley Center! No HOA!
