About this home

Auburn West Hill opportunity with space that is increasingly hard to find. This move-in-ready 4-bedroom, 1.75-bath rambler sits on an expansive 17,000+ sq. ft. R-4 zoned lot and combines a well-maintained home with exceptional outdoor space and long-term potential. Inside, you’ll find refinished hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, a newer roof, a warm fireplace centerpiece, and a functional single-level floor plan. A converted garage adds valuable flex space for a home office, gym, recreation room, workshop, or additional storage. Outside is where this property truly separates itself. The oversized lot features mature landscaping, established fruit trees, generous yard space, and room to garden, entertain, play, or create the outdoor setup you’ve been looking for. R-4 zoning may also provide opportunities to explore an ADU, middle housing, or other future development options, subject to buyer verification with the City of Auburn. Conveniently located near parks, schools, shopping, dining, I-5, and SR-167, this is a rare chance to own a move-in-ready home with land, flexibility, and future potential on Auburn’s West Hill.
