Enchanting ranch-style charm with subtle Cape Cod influences creates an unforgettable first impression at this beautifully updated Riverside residence. Framed by a welcoming front porch, manicured landscaping, and an oversized one-car garage with a spacious three-car driveway, this home radiates warmth, character, and timeless curb appeal. Thoughtfully upgraded throughout, major improvements include a newer roof, a newer heating and air conditioning system, and newer dual-pane windows—offering comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind. Featuring approximately 1,315 square feet of living space, including a massive, fully finished basement, this versatile home offers three spacious bedrooms and endless possibilities for expansion. Hardwood flooring flows throughout the home, complemented by scraped ceilings and updated lighting that enhance the bright and inviting atmosphere. Formal living and dining areas provide elegant yet comfortable gathering spaces, highlighted by dramatic window walls that fill the home with natural light and frame views of Mount Rubidoux and seasonal holiday fireworks. The reimagined kitchen combines style and functionality with professionally painted and redesigned cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances, including an upgraded range hood. The remodeled bathroom features charming wainscoting, floor-to-ceiling tiled shower walls, and a reglazed tub, while the generously sized bedrooms offer ceiling fans and deep closets with built-in drawers and cabinetry for exceptional storage. Step outside and discover one of the property’s most exciting features—the massive, fully finished basement with private exterior access. Whether imagined as a future ADU, game room, gym, office, hobby studio, or ultimate man cave, the possibilities are endless. Outdoor living shines with a covered wood deck/patio, perfect for year-round al fresco dining and entertaining, plus two additional oversized patio areas with shade structures for even more outdoor enjoyment. The pool-sized backyard, landscaping, and irrigation system were upgraded just a few years ago, creating a beautiful and functional outdoor retreat. Ideally located less than 1.4 miles from UC Riverside and nearby public schools, this home also offers quick access to scenic hiking and biking trails, including the iconic Mount Rubidoux Park, California Citrus State Park, downtown Riverside, shopping, dining, entertainment, and the 91, 60, and 215 freeways.
