Located in the established Texas Tract of Simi Valley, this single-story Belwood model offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and approximately 1,612 sq. ft. of living space on an 8,276 sq. ft. lot. With no HOA and proximity to Big Springs Elementary and Valley View Middle School, the location continues to draw buyers seeking established neighborhoods and larger lot sizes. Brick-lined planters and driveway, artificial turf in the front yard, stucco and painted brick exterior, and a brick entry create a welcoming first impression. The extra-deep 2-car garage provides flexibility for storage, workspace, or hobby use. Inside, the spacious living room features a brick fireplace, a wood mantel, a wood-beam ceiling detail, and a sliding glass door opening to the backyard. Half pony walls define the dining area near the entry, creating separation while maintaining an open feel. The kitchen features tile countertops, a pantry area, and a dining nook, along with tile flooring, and direct access to the extra-deep 2-car garage with laundry hookups; the garage also has a side door leading to the backyard. Three secondary bedrooms offer comfortable space for family or guests, or for a home office, each with closet storage. The hall bathroom includes a tub/shower combination and a single-sink vanity. The primary bedroom features an attached bathroom with a makeup vanity area, additional storage, a pedestal sink, and a walk-in shower with an enclosed glass door. The backyard offers a large, covered brick patio, brick-lined planters, and block wall fencing along the rear and sides — providing a private outdoor space with room to redesign or create your own retreat. Dual-pane windows and an updated HVAC system enhance comfort and energy efficiency. This single-story home brings together lot size, location, and layout, offering a great opportunity to make it your own.
