Property Description

Affordable foothill living with character, usable land, and room to grow! Nestled among the trees in Cedar Ridge, this charming home sits on an almost level .33-acre lot with plenty of space for RV and boat parking, a future garage or workshop, gardens, or an outdoor entertaining area. Inside, beautiful exposed wood beams and vaulted, wood-finished ceilings give the main living area the warm, inviting feel of a mountain retreat. Gather around the wood stove on chilly evenings or enjoy year-round comfort from the brand-new mini-split. The main level also includes the kitchen, dining area, a bedroom, and a full bathroom with shower. And there's more space downstairs! County records reflect 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and 576 sq. ft.; however, the home includes additional finished downstairs space with a bedroom, half bath, and laundry area. Sellers estimate the home's total usable space at approximately 900 sq. ft. The sellers have made several recent improvements, including finishing the downstairs bedroom with sheetrock and insulation, renovating the half bath, adding the laundry area, installing the new mini-split, and adding fresh gravel to the driveway for easy access up to the home. They also cleared many trees to improve defensible space. This property has public water and a septic system. The attached carport is currently used for storage and may offer additional possibilities, while the spacious lot provides plenty of room to create the garage, workshop, garden, or outdoor living space you've been dreaming about. Imagine an outdoor kitchen and gathering area beneath the trees for summer evenings with family and friends! Cedar Ridge offers a peaceful mountain setting with optional HOA membership, currently just $275 per year, providing access to community amenities including the lake, beach, swimming, clubhouse, and more. Whether you're searching for your first home, a foothill getaway, or an affordable property with space and potential, this well-maintained Cedar Ridge home is one you'll want to see!
