About This Property
Yes — there's an active freight rail line directly across the street. Trains pass. The current owners have lived here for years and simply stopped noticing; it became part of the rhythm of home. We're disclosing it upfront, because the price already reflects it. What that means for you: BUILT-IN EQUITY from day one, before you even walk through the front door. Now — here's what you're actually getting. A true single-story layout with room to breathe, inside and out. NO HOA. NO MELLO-ROOS. No rules dictating how you live, park, or improve your property. The front yard is a showstopper: FOUR TOWERING PALM TREES frame the entrance with unmistakable curb appeal, and a charming private courtyard welcomes you before you even step inside. Front and back yards are fully landscaped with an automatic sprinkler system throughout — COMPLETELY TURNKEY, zero maintenance required on day one. Inside, a comfortable layout flows naturally through the living room, family room, kitchen, and dining room. Kitchen and bathrooms are spotless clean, well-maintained, and genuinely move-in ready, with fresh interior paint throughout that gives the home a bright, updated feel. A BRAND NEW FURNACE and an HVAC system only 9 years old mean the mechanicals are solid and already covered. Smart thermostat, and a FULL SECURITY CAMERA SYSTEM are already installed — real peace of mind, included. Step into the backyard and you'll find a large concrete slab perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining, 7 mature fruit trees offering natural shade and seasonal harvests, and a sizeable storage shed tucked along the side yard. The entire property is clean, cared for, and reflects genuine pride of ownership at every turn — a home that's been loved, not just lived in. Here's the real story: this property is ADU ELIGIBLE under CA state law, with a detached ADU up to 1,200 sq ft generally permitted BY RIGHT on R-1 lots. Build a guest house, a long-term rental, or a casita for extended family. TWO INCOME STREAMS on one parcel may be within reach. Buyer to independently verify ADU feasibility and permitting with the City of Riverside; no guarantee of approval is made or implied. Direct 91 Freeway access puts you minutes from UCR, shopping, dining, and the full Inland Empire freeway network. No spin. No surprises. A solid, well-maintained home in a connected location — priced with honesty for the buyer who recognizes real value the moment they see it. Schedule your private showing today.
