Agent Remarks: Nestled on a .4-acre hillside, this custom 1968 home offers a serene and private retreat with panoramic views. Featuring intricately detailed wood flooring, high vaulted beamed ceilings, the great floorplan includes 3 bedrooms plus a den (or 4th bedroom). The walk-out basement features a laundry room and a spacious 11 x 22 storage shop area. Tucked away below Helix Street amidst a park-like setting reminiscent of a bygone era, this property includes the historic 1890 "Olla" — the original cistern of the Helix Farms spring, after which Spring Valley is named. Once part of the Historic Bancroft Ranch, the property boasts garden-like grounds crisscrossed with stone stairs, meandering paths, and romantic stone benches. Evoking a sense of stepping back in time, the home is situated on "Cactus Hill," offering a unique blend of history and modern comfort. While not currently registered as a historical landmark, the "Olla" holds significant historical value, according to the Spring Valley Historical Association. Buyers are encouraged to review the Community Design Guidelines for the Spring Valley Community Planning Area, particularly page 71, which outlines guidelines for preserving historical sites. Seller and agents make no representations regarding modifications to or removal of the "Olla," emphasizing its integral role in Southern California's rich history. This property presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Spring Valley's past within a meticulously maintained unique home and grounds.
