Set on 1.28 beautifully maintained acres between Live Oak and Yuba City, this custom-built estate offers privacy, space, and flexibility just minutes from town. Built in 2002, the home showcases quality craftsmanship throughout, with hardwood flooring, custom cabinetry, and a spacious open-concept layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The expansive kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a large wraparound island, granite countertops, and seamless flow into the dining and living areas. The primary suite offers a unique and versatile layout, with two connected rooms that can function as a traditional master retreat, private sitting area, or dual-bedroom configuration. The suite is complemented by a walk-in closet, dual vanities, sunken tub, walk-in shower, and upgraded bidet. A separate ensuite bedroom provides ideal accommodations for guests, extended family, or private living quarters. Step outside to enjoy the fully landscaped grounds, complete with mature trees, expansive lawn space, and multiple outdoor areas designed for relaxation and entertaining. The inviting covered front porch and elevated rear deck capture peaceful views of the Sutter Buttes and surrounding orchards, creating a true country setting. One of the most compelling features of the property is the large unfinished upstairs space, offering significant potential for additional bedrooms, a home theater, gym, or bonus living area. With framing already in place, this presents a rare opportunity to expand and add value. Additional highlights include a U-shaped driveway with dual access points, abundant parking, attached three-car garage, central vacuum system and a dedicated office. This is a rare opportunity to own a private, estate-style property with both immediate comfort and future upside.
