Discover a Hidden Gem nestled in the scenic Alhambra Valley of Martinez! This unique property offers the perfect blend of rustic charm, seclusion, and untapped potential. The midcentury modern home features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and over 2,099 sq ft of living space and includes a bonus entertainment room (approx. 710 sq ft) on the lower level—ideal for gatherings, game nights, or a cozy media lounge. The bonus room opens to the pool deck that is waiting to be reimagined. Set on 1.16 acres, the property is being sold AS-IS with an adjacent .68-acre parcel—perfect for horse lovers, homesteaders, investors, or anyone ready to bring their vision to life.

It’s a unique centerpiece waiting to be restored or repurposed into something incredible. Turn this timeless ranch property into the estate of your dreams!
