You've been dreaming of this. Space to breathe. Animals just outside your door. A slower morning rhythm where the view reminds you why you made the move. Welcome to your homestead in Harbison Canyon. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this fully fenced property is already built for the lifestyle most people are still planning. Canyon and mountain views stretch in every direction from the covered front porch, from the deck off the back, and from the upper parcels where the land opens up and the horizon goes quiet. Inside, the home surprises you. Vaulted ceilings with skylights, an open great room, warm wood-tone flooring, and a beautifully upgraded kitchen with quartz countertops, white shaker cabinets, and a tile backsplash. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and 1,344 square feet of comfortable, functional living but the true value is everything that surrounds it. Step outside and you'll find: • A covered front porch and pergola — your outdoor living room • A greenhouse and garden beds ready for year-round growing • Animal pens previously home to chickens and goats • A chicken coop with enclosed run • RV hookups with water, sewer, and electric • A detached finished studio/office with vaulted ceiling, recessed lighting, and updated floors — ideal for working from home, creative space, or future ADU conversion • A spa and fire pit for evenings under the stars. • A detached one-car garage/workshop with tall ceilings offers the perfect space for projects, storage, tools, or hobby use. What truly sets this property apart is the land itself... Three separate parcels — two currently vacant — offer rare future build potential for additional homes, a multi-generational compound, guest quarters, or income-producing opportunities. Whether you expand, invest, or simply preserve the open space around you, this kind of flexibility is hard to find. Septic installed and certified. Three APNs on title. No HOA. New furnace (2022). Minutes to the freeway. Some photos virtually staged. This is more than a property. It's a shift in how you live
