Spacious 5-Bedroom Ranch with Single Floor Living, Elevator, Wine Cellar, and Nearly Half an Acre. From the street, this home reads as a classic ranch. Step inside and the layout keeps unfolding, room after room, into a home with far more scale and function than the exterior suggests. An open layout with vaulted ceilings and large windows brings in natural light across the main living areas.Designed for true single-floor living, with all primary living space on one level. An elevator connecting the floors and a ramp from the garage provide step-free access throughout, making coming and going effortless.The lower level is built for how residents actually use the space day to day: a large playroom with a built-in performance stage, desk, plus toy and sports storage gives room to play, create, or put on a show. A separate workshop or craft room provides space for bigger projects. Direct access leads out to a big backyard with a lighted basketball court, full-size soccer net, and a custom swing set.Outside, an enclosed patio opens to raised vegetable garden beds on automated irrigation, along with mature apple and blueberry trees and several varieties of wine grapes. A wine cellar offers the perfect spot to store and enjoy your own vintage.Set on 0.46 acres with panoramic views, the property offers 3,850 square feet, 5 bedrooms, and 3.5 baths across two levels that never feel disconnected.
