Not only is it in the best location, but it is also in the best development in South Lake County (just a little over an hour drive on lightly traveled, well maintained roads to Santa Rosa). It has fully developed and landscaped grounds for outdoor living, with fruit trees, white and purple lilac trees, and a dogwood grove with pink, white and red flowers.

At an asking price of $795,000, that equates to $153.00 a sf. Try building it for twice the price! This home has more than everything you are looking for and the value is compelling. Ready to take a closer look? Here goes…
