Property Description
Pride of ownership is immediately felt in this thoughtfully cared-for Cottonwood home, cherished for its unique positioning, privacy, and setting. Tucked back with intentional landscaping and privacy screening, the property offers a rare sense of seclusion, enhanced by a fully timed drip irrigation system that supports lush gardens and mature plantings throughout the grounds. As spring arrives, the home truly comes alive with blooming fruit trees—two apricots and a peach—along with stunning oak trees lining the drive, creating a welcoming and serene approach. The exterior has been freshly painted, the roof and HVAC system are both only a few years old, and the driveway has been meticulously maintained year after year.
