About this home

Rural Reche Canyon Living – Just Minutes to Town! Enjoy peaceful country living only 2.5 miles from shopping and 4.7 miles from Loma Linda University Medical Center. This single-level 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on approximately 1.2 acres of flat, fully fenced land along a quiet dirt road. Built in 1976, the home offers an updated kitchen with granite countertops, convenient access to a large indoor laundry room, and a direct connection to the attached 2-car garage with a new roll-up door. The floor plan includes a spacious living and dining area, a cozy family room with a fireplace and attached bonus space—perfect for a home office, hobby room, or guest area + generous hall storage. Recent improvements include new ducting for central heat and air conditioning. The property features mature shade trees that frame the front yard, ample parking, and a large barn with concrete flooring—the barn has recently been painted and fumigated—ideal for storage, extra parking, or potential use for farm animals. A corral is included, and the barn’s upstairs loft offers additional possibilities once access stairs are replaced. The rear portion of the property is lined with fruit trees, including two avocado, apple, pomegranate, and a variety of citrus trees. The setting offers both function and serenity—perfect for those seeking rural charm with city convenience nearby.

Built in 1976, this property shows signs of regular maintenance but features largely outdated interior finishes. While the kitchen has granite countertops, its dark cabinetry, dark green counters, wallpapered ceiling, and older appliances (except for the refrigerator) suggest an update from 15-30 years ago rather than a recent renovation. Both bathrooms are significantly dated, featuring older vanities, light fixtures, and carpet in one, indicating a need for modernization. Although new HVAC ducting is a positive update, the overall aesthetic, including dated carpets and light fixtures throughout, indicates that the home requires minor updates to meet current styles and preferences.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Expansive & Usable Land: Approximately 1.2 acres of flat, fully fenced land with mature shade trees and a variety of fruit trees, offering significant outdoor space and agricultural potential.
Versatile Outbuilding & Animal Facilities: Features a large, recently maintained barn with concrete flooring, ideal for storage, extra parking, or farm animals, complemented by an included corral.
Modernized Comforts: Benefits from an updated kitchen with granite countertops and new ducting for central heat and air conditioning, enhancing livability and comfort.
Flexible Interior Layout: Offers a practical single-level floor plan with a spacious living/dining area, a family room with a fireplace, and an attached bonus space suitable for various uses like an office or guest area.
Strategic Rural-Urban Balance: Provides peaceful country living on a quiet road, yet remains conveniently close (2.5 miles) to shopping and Loma Linda University Medical Center, offering the best of both worlds.

Cons

Unpaved Road Access: The property is situated on a 'quiet dirt road,' which may present maintenance challenges, dust issues, or be less desirable for some buyers compared to paved access.
Potential for Further Updates: As a 1976 build, despite some recent improvements, other major systems or aesthetic elements of the home may require future updates or maintenance to meet modern standards.
Incomplete Barn Loft Access: The barn's upstairs loft requires replacement of access stairs to be fully functional, indicating an immediate investment needed to utilize this additional space.
