Fantastic opportunity to put your own style and personal touches on this 3 bed, 2-bath home. The property offers a solid starting point with update flooring, windows, and some appliances already in place. Inside, the living area features a cozy fireplace, and a sliding glass door opens to the backyard for easy indoor-outdoor living. The backyard is a rare retreat, backing to a creek for added privacy. It features a lush mix of mature fruit trees and tropical landscaping, including orange, lemon, lime, guava, and sapote, along with Kentia, King, and Queen palms, plus plumeria, hibiscus, and elephant ear. Ideally located near the Magnolia Shopping Center and all its amenities, Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital, Lane Farms, Lassen Open Space, and a nearby bike path to Goleta Beach.
