Just up the hill from Murphys, near everyone’s favorite spot for delicious apple cinnamon donuts, sits this charming mountain home. This residence offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience and is ideally suited for full-time living. Set on 1.65 acres and below the heavy snow line, this property enjoys a serene setting with naturalized landscaping and a gated, level paved driveway for effortless year-round access. Step inside to find a warm and inviting living area with vaulted pine ceilings, skylights that bathe the room in natural light, and a seamless flow into the dining and kitchen area. The spacious kitchen has been updated with new Corian-type counters, a newer refrigerator, a ‘dreamy’ Wolf brand stove and beautiful handmade cabinets with red oak inlay. Extend your outdoor living with a covered rear deck perfect for gatherings or quiet relaxation and, in front, stroll endless pathways and patios surrounded by beautiful gardens. The Primary Suite is a true haven, complete with a generous walk-in closet and a well-appointed bath. Two additional bedrooms, a second full bath, all freshly painted, complete the main house. Central heat, air conditioning and multiple ceiling fans provide comfort year-round. A Generac generator and 24 solar panels, paid for and owned add to a stress free lifestyle. Practicality meets possibility with a completely separate bonus room, bedroom and bath with its own laundry room, filled with natural light from multiple windows, offering space for projects, hobbies, or additional living space that is not included in the listed square footage! Two, two-car garages for cars or a shop plus so much room on the driveway for a motorhome, ski boat, or fishing boat. A small shed for extra storage adds to the amenities. All this comes with the convenience of being just minutes from the charming town of Murphys, known for its boutique shops, wine tasting, and dining. Outdoor adventures are available nearby: Bear Valley Mountain Resort is only 40 minutes away for skiing and snowboarding, and New Melones Reservoir is a quick drive for boating, fishing, and summer fun. A rare combination of setting, space, and amenities, this home checks all the boxes for those seeking both comfort and lifestyle in the Sierra foothills.
