What makes this particular lot so special, it is a corner lot in the heart of the community, it is an elevated lot with great valley & mountain views, and it also has topography with many interesting features like the borderline trees, or the dry creek bed along the back/side, and the large buildable areas too. Road easements exist along both streets, however over 2+ acres still remain as potential building sites (2025 surveys attached to this MLS listing, or available upon request). Note: the current owners have some concept drawings prepared (nothing submitted for approvals), however as they are architects/designers, they may be open to discussions if desired.
