Only a short redwood-lined drive inland from historic Mendocino and the Pacific, this rare property on the west side of Comptche allows you to have everything: 24+ acres of sunny meadows and forestland, gorgeous valley views, serene privacy, and an open, one-story 3 bed/2 bath home just remodeled! Move-in ready and surrounded by established fruit and ornamental trees, this well-insulated home stays cool in summer and warm in winter, while the south-facing sunroom and decks allow passive solar heating as they visually embrace the surrounding acreage. The remodeled kitchen boasts a new stainless refrigerator, a 36'' range, modern open shelving, and an extended kitchen island inviting guests to pull up stools and converse with the chef! The primary suite enjoys cork flooring, a large walk-in closet, and a modern bathroom with a jetted tub, a separate glass and tile shower, and a door onto the deck beyond. Other amenities include a new roof, an attached garage and tool shed, and a gusher of a well, last tested at 20+/- gals per minute! Fiber optic lines recently installed on Surprise Valley Road allow for the latest in modern connectivity. Should you ever want to build a second home, a graded second building site awaits. Nevermind choosing between sun, open acreage, or proximity to the coast. Have it all!
