A RURAL RETREAT WITH AN EXCEPTIONAL SHOP! Set in a peaceful country setting surrounded by a walnut orchard, this custom-built home offers the space, quality and versatility rarely found in one property. Built in 2008 by the original owner, who was also the contractor and designer, this home was thoughtfully crafted as a place to live for a lifetime—with quality construction and attention to detail evident throughout.
The approximately 2,400-square-foot insulated shop is an incredible highlight and a dream setup for car enthusiasts, contractors, hobbyists, collectors or anyone needing substantial workspace. Featuring two large roll-up doors, a heavy-duty vehicle lift, an office ready for finishing, and a generous concrete pad out front, there is room to work, store equipment and accommodate all the toys. The gated and fenced property provides additional privacy, security and ample space for parking.
Inside the home, you’ll find approximately 2,244 square feet of comfortable living space, with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, laminate flooring throughout, two HVAC split systems for added comfort, and abundant windows that fill the home with natural light. The inviting living room features a cozy fireplace and flows seamlessly into the open kitchen and dining area.
The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring granite countertops, a large island, walk-in pantry and dining nook. The spacious primary suite offers a generous bedroom with direct backyard access, along with a luxurious bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower and jetted soaking tub.
Outside, the front yard is established with mature greenery, while the backyard offers a blank canvas ready for your vision. A variety of established fruit trees—including olive, apricot, pear, cherry, plum and apple—along with walnut trees, complement the rural setting.
Enjoy the freedom of country living while remaining just minutes from the Sacramento River, with opportunities for boating, fishing, swimming and recreation nearby.
The property is offered with the refrigerator, washer and dryer, making the transition into your new home even easier.
And for those seeking even more land or an additional agricultural opportunity, the contiguous 1.77-acre walnut orchard parcel at 3720 Cosby Ave is also available for purchase under a separate APN. See MLS #SN26205871 for details.
