This house is close to town, yet secluded on a gated private road. It is on a hilltop with all-around views, only one hour from Yosemite. You will be close to town, but feel like you are in the country.
The kitchen was recently renovated with oak flooring and cabinets, granite counters and stainless appliances. It has a large seating island as well as a breakfast nook. The dining room, entry, hall and sunroom floors are oak; the bedrooms are carpeted.
The home is spacious with lots of windows overlooking the historic town of Sonora and the Sierras in the distance. The back deck is a favorite gathering spot. There is also a small deck off the sunroom and a covered tile front porch. Many animals are in the vicinity: quail, wild turkeys, donkeys, horses, and cows to name a few.
There is a laundry room with a halfbath; three of the bedrooms each have their own bathroom. The fourth bedroom, accessed through two other bedrooms, doubles as a sunroom, with windows on three sides.
We are 3 hours from San Francisco, 10 minutes from Columbia State Historic Park, 5 minutes from Railtown 1897. There is a variety of recreational opportunities nearby; Pinecrest Lake, Dodge Ridge Ski Resort, Kennedy Meadows Pack Station; Aspen Meadows Pack Station, Black Oak Casino, Chicken Ranch Casino, the town of Murphys, Ironstone Vineyards, Melones Reservoir, Don Pedro Reservoir, Lyons Reservoir, Columbia Community College, Stanislaus River, Tuolumne River, and the stunning Sonora Pass on Highway 108.
The house is on one level; below is a garage, toolroom, and separate apartment.
