The story
Picture your mornings here: coffee in hand on a sprawling deck, sunlight filtering through the oaks, and the Sierra Foothills stretching out before you. Set on just over half an acre, this 4 bed, 2 bath home feels peaceful and private, yet historic downtown Placerville is just 7 minutes away, with easy access to Highway 50 and Marshall Hospital. The main home is all on one level, with steps leading up to the front entry and from the garage. The kitchen is a warm gathering place, with granite counters and breakfast bar seating, rich wood cabinetry, travertine backsplash, gas cooktop, double wall ovens, and a skylight that fills the room with natural light. It flows into the dining area, where a wood stove against a stacked-stone wall invites you to linger over long dinners on chilly evenings. In the living room, a second fireplace sets the scene for movie nights and quiet afternoons with a good book. Above the garage, a light-filled flex room steals the show, with sweeping treetop and foothill views pouring in through oversized windows beneath a vaulted ceiling. With an added closet, wainscoting, and its own slider to the deck, its privacy and separate entrance make it an inspiring home office, studio, or creative retreat. The fourth bedroom, with leaded-glass French doors, hardwood floors, closet, and skylight, offers even more flexibility. At the end of the day, retreat to the spacious primary suite with updated flooring, deck access, and an en-suite bath with two separate quartz vanities. Outdoors is where this home truly comes alive. The deck has been completely redone in composite decking, with sliders from the dining area, primary bedroom, a guest bedroom, and the treetop flex room, so indoor-outdoor living flows naturally. Step down to the hardtop gazebo and gather around the fire table as the sun sets over the trees. Tiered flat areas are ready for your garden dreams, and an abundance of firewood will keep you cozy for seasons to come. Owned solar and new flooring in several areas add everyday value. The oversized, extra-deep two-car garage plus a third bay offers room for storage or the workshop you've always wanted. A place to live, work, grow, and gather, all close to everything Placerville has to offer. Come feel the charm of this beautiful property and let the foothills welcome you home!
