Tucked one block from East Portal Park, this 2006-built residence offers something East Sacramento rarely does: modern construction inside one of the city's most walkable, tree-lined pockets. Three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths unfold across 1,369 light-filled square feet, an attached garage, and a covered patio built for slow Sunday mornings. The low-maintenance lot means more time on the nearby Street patios and less time on yard work lock the door and pop over to Selland's, OBO' Italian, or Corti Brothers in minutes. Because it was built in 2006, you get the character of the neighborhood without the upkeep of a century-old home: newer systems, an efficient two-story layout, and a footprint that lives larger than its numbers. Sacramento State, UC Davis Medical Center, and downtown sit a short hop away via Folsom Boulevard and Highway 50, with light rail close by. East Portal Park's bocce courts, children's play area, and wide-open green wait at the end of the block. Turnkey and move-in ready. Opportunities to own a newer home in this neighborhood are exceptionally rare. The address everyone wants, in a home that asks nothing of you but to enjoy it.
