About this home

Opportunity knocks in the Shadow Hills neighborhood of Mt. Helix - an incredible chance to renovate, personalize & create your dream home. Custom built in 1969 & offered for the first time by its original owner, this single-story ranch sits on a private 1-acre lot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. The home offers a spacious dining room & living room with fireplace, ideal for entertaining. The kitchen features abundant cabinet & counter space, a breakfast bar for casual seating & offers excellent potential for expansion. The primary bedroom includes an en-suite bath & provides views of the pool & mountains. Three additional bedrooms provide versatile space for a growing family, guests, or a home office. One bedroom is currently configured as an office off the primary suite, offering flexibility to be converted back to a bedroom, expanded into a larger primary bathroom, or reimagined as a spacious walk-in closet. Additional highlights include a laundry room with half bath, owned solar, a pool & spa with expansive patio space & a 2-car garage and a large driveway for RV parking & multiple vehicles. An outbuilding provides potential for a workshop or extra storage. Additional features include a newer dual-zoned HVAC system & a durable concrete tile roof. The low-maintenance grounds feature mature plumeria, hibiscus & a citrus grove with grapefruit, orange & lemon trees. Shadow Hills is a well-established, peaceful community in the scenic hills of Mt. Helix, known for its larger lots, privacy & sweeping valley view - yet still conveniently located near shopping & freeway access.
