    For the first time ever, 812 S California St is coming to market—and if you've been waiting for your chance at this one, it's finally here. This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers over 2,000 square feet on each level and lives like new, thanks to thoughtful updates throughout the years—including triple-pane Pella windows. Nicely updated cabinetry and countertops run throughout, giving the entire home a fresh, move-in-ready feel. Built in 1995 and set on a generous and private .265-acre lot, it comes complete with an attached two-car garage plus a professionally designed car/boat parking pad by Gardenwerks. The main level features two bedrooms and two bathrooms—including the primary suite—plus a comfortable living room with high efficiency gas fireplace and large windows overlooking Helena open space. A dedicated office showcases a custom built-in display cabinet by local craftsman Al Swanson. Stay comfortable year-round with baseboard hot water heat and central air conditioning on the main level. Downstairs, a full walkout basement opens to what may be the home's best feature: an exceptionally manicured backyard with gate access that ties cleanly into the South Hills trail system. A second living space makes the lower level perfect for guests, family, or entertaining. You'll find a large third bedroom and full bathroom, along with a versatile bonus room. With egress windows already in place, it's just a wall away from being divided into two additional bedrooms—or keep it as your hobby space and enjoy the climate-controlled wine closet, designed to hold your collection at the ideal temperature and humidity. Set at the quiet end of S California St, you'll enjoy light traffic while still having quick access to some of the best connector streets for getting around town. It's the rare combination of a great house plus convenience, privacy, and outdoor access that's hard to find—and impossible to wait on. Schedule your showing today.
