Rare Canyon-View Retreat on oversized lot in the Heart of University Heights.

Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated with a remodeled kitchen and beautifully renovated bathrooms, luxury vinyl plank flooring, LED recessed lighting, dual-pane windows, and four skylights that fill the home with natural light. Additional upgrades include central A/C, a whole-house fan, new water heater, 200-amp electrical panel, and two fireplaces.
