Welcome to this desirable northeast Santee neighborhood, where there are no HOA fees and pride of ownership is evident throughout. Nestled just north of El Nopal, this charming home sits on gently rolling hills, offering subtle city views from the tranquil, Zen-inspired front and backyard retreats. Situated on a generous corner lot along a quiet side street, the property provides exceptional privacy along with ample parking. Step inside to a warm and inviting living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace. The thoughtfully designed floor plan separates the living spaces from the bedrooms, with the kitchen, dining area, and family room to the left, and the three bedrooms and two full bathrooms to the right. The kitchen is highlighted by a large picture window above the sink overlooking the lush, green backyard. It flows seamlessly into the dining room and adjoining family room, creating an ideal layout for both everyday living and entertaining. The bedroom wing offers three comfortable bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary bathroom has been tastefully updated with a brand-new vanity and an illuminated mirror.

Through the dining room's sliding glass door, you'll step onto a covered patio overlooking the expansive, fully fenced backyard. This private outdoor oasis features mature trees, vibrant landscaping, and the continuation of the unique rock formations, resulting in a truly distinctive and serene environment. The attached two-car garage includes the laundry area, additional storage space, and convenient direct access into the home. For added peace of mind, termite clearance has already been completed and is available.
