Agent Remarks

Welcome home to this private retreat with sweeping views of El Cajon and the surrounding mountains. Located in the County of San Diego, yet in the heart of El Cajon, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, space, beautiful views, RV parking w/hook ups, and a newly renovated pool w/water fountain features. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has an attached 3 car garage with 10 ft. roll up doors and sits on .9 acres. It also comes with an additional .48 acre parcel that is currently grandfathered in for a total of 1.38 acres. Inside, the home features vaulted ceilings, new dual-pane windows with solar shades, updated bathrooms, a wood burning fplc w/a pellet stove insert, a spacious liv. room, formal DR, and a lg. kitchen that has hickory cabinets with slide out shelves & drawers, Silestone countertops, a center island with gas cooktop, a full size dbl oven with convection, a side by side refrigerator, and a Bosch d/w with a 3rd rack. There is also a lg. laundry rm/pantry which includes an addt’l refrigerator. Two of the 3 bedrooms have very lg. walk-in closets for lots of storage. Multiple floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room maximize natural light and showcase the stunning views. The outdoor space is great for entertaining (especially on the Fourth of July). There’s a lg. covered patio for barbecuing or outdoor movie nights, a fully fenced pool, new sod and sprinklers in the front yard, and an XL space in the backyard that is currently set up with horse shoe pits, but has a lot of potential for a play area, growing a garden, or possibly adding an addition, etc.... A long private driveway leads to the home and offers plenty of parking for vehicles, RVs, boats, and/or toys. Incl.: RV Pad w/30 amps & water. The property includes a variety of lg. fruit trees, including orange, lemon, peach, nectarine, and fruit cocktail. There are also pomegranates, along with grapevines, and a macadamia nut tree grove. If you are looking for a private oasis with beautiful views, a pool, usable acreage, and close proximity to town, this is a must-see property. Sellers are motivated! Property has been surveyed and markers are in. A perk test was done in 2007 for parcel #493-120-66 (.48 ac.) and perked for a 2 BR. or 3 BR. w/garage.
