Description

Welcome to this beautifully maintained and extensively upgraded single-story home in sought-after North La Verne. It offers full energy independence and a spectacular private backyard oasis, blending California indoor-outdoor living with modern efficiency. The home features fresh two-tone exterior paint, a brand-new Malarkey roof with custom gutters, and a wholly owned solar array. Mature birch and strawberry trees frame the property, complemented by drought-tolerant landscaping with rock-lined beds, ornamental grasses, and vibrant plantings. The RV-capable driveway leads to a two-car attached garage with a newer door and Tesla home charging station. Inside, a bright open floor plan showcases neutral tones, quality tile and wood flooring, recessed lighting, and smooth finishes. The spacious living room centers on a cozy brick fireplace.

The resort-style backyard is the highlight: a sparkling pool/spa, lush drought-tolerant landscaping with palms, fruit trees, bougainvillea, hibiscus, flowering shrubs, manicured lawns, and garden beds on an automatic sprinkler system. Enjoy a built-in fire pit, stunning mountain views, and a bird-friendly setting (orioles, hummingbirds, egrets frequent visitors). Block walls provide privacy while keeping the space bright and open. Lovingly maintained for worry-free retirement, this home includes a fully paid 10.12 kW solar array with 3 Tesla Powerwalls delivering 100% self-powered status and zero grid reliance (saving >$1,700 on electricity in 5 months).
