This inviting single level home is situated in a quiet and thriving south Orcutt neighborhood of single family residences on large lots, close to fantastic schools, parks, restaurants (including Orcutt Burger), new Cottage Urgent Care, shopping, recreation opportunities and an easy commute to Vandenburg SFB. This home is being offered for the very first time since it was built. It has been lovingly maintained and updated and is in move-in-ready condition. Features include updated kitchen with laminate hardwood floors, light wood cabinetry, solid surface breakfast bar and stainless steel appliances. The living room offers expansive open entertaining space with large sliding glass door opening into the backyard and is anchored by a brick wood-burning fireplace with carved wood mantle. A central hallway brightened by overhead solartube leads to 3 bedrooms including a primary bedroom with attached private bathroom with marble-topped sink vanity, white cabinets and decorative accents. Completing this property is an attached 2-car garage with laundry and storage space. One of the best features of this property is its huge usable lot. The drought tolerant backyard is shaded by mature trees, pollinator-friendly flowers, fruit trees and vegetables and an open entertaining patio space with stepping stones, arbor and storage shed. The nearly 1/4 acre lot offers expansion possibilities with potential to expand the home, build a separate ADU, workshop and/or add a pool and spa.
