Lake Nacimiento living begins here, where this thoughtfully maintained single-level residence is nestled among stately oak trees and neighboring open space. Located within the gated Heritage Ranch community, the property offers an active lifestyle centered around boating, fishing, watersports, hiking, horseback riding, and year-round outdoor recreation, complemented by private lake access, community pools, equestrian facilities, parks, and scenic trails. Nearby Paso Robles adds another dimension to the experience with renowned wineries, exceptional dining, boutique shopping, and the relaxed elegance of the Central Coast. Thoughtfully positioned to embrace its peaceful surroundings, the three-bedroom, two-bath floor plan is filled with natural light and framed by views of the surrounding oak-studded hillsides. Cathedral ceilings and expansive windows create an inviting living room, which features a pellet stove with a brick surround and wood mantel for cozy evenings at home. A built-in bookcase welcomes you at the entry, while laminate flooring extends through most of the living areas and bathrooms. The adjoining dining area is designed for gathering with friends, featuring a mobile freestanding granite-topped island that complements the kitchen while providing flexibility for entertaining or casual meals. Blending timeless character with everyday functionality, the kitchen features custom oak cabinetry with glass-front display doors, granite countertops, a pantry, a reverse osmosis system, a hanging pot rack, a beverage refrigerator, and a complete stainless steel appliance package with an included refrigerator. A window above the sink frames peaceful hillside views, bringing the beauty of the landscape into everyday routines. The private primary suite opens directly to the rear deck, creating a tranquil retreat complete with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath with a shower. Two secondary bedrooms are conveniently situated near a full guest bath with a walk-in tub/shower combo, providing comfortable accommodations for family and guests. The rear yard and deck are where this home truly comes to life. It’s a place to begin the day with coffee, gather with friends for dinner, observe the natural beauty of deer and wild turkey, or simply unwind in the hot tub while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Raised garden beds, soothing fountains, and a greenhouse add to the outdoor experience, while an extended-depth two-car garage with built-in storage cabinets, overhead storage, and an auto backup generator provide everyday practicality.
