The property's mature vineyard includes Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and more. Owners and past owners have previously had local farmers care for the grapes in exchange for the fruit at harvest time making this lush landscaping easy to enjoy. Edible landscaping surrounds you with fruit trees (apples, peaches, figs, pomegranates, mulberries, raspberries) and raised garden beds for vegetables and herbs, creating your very own farm-to-table lifestyle. With thoughtful upgrades including a new roof (2019), reverse osmosis system, and solid wood interior doors, this home offers exceptional value and comfort.
