Welcome to 986 Harvest Mill Drive, a rare opportunity in the highly sought-after Union Ranch community. Known for its established surroundings, larger homesites, peaceful streets, and freedom from HOA fees, Union Ranch continues to be one of Manteca's most desirable neighborhoods. Residents also enjoy convenient access to neighborhood walking and biking trails, making it easy to stay active, enjoy an evening stroll, or explore the community by bike. A nearby park offers playground areas, open green space, and room for outdoor recreation and four-legged companions. This clean, move-in-ready, one-owner home offers a rarely available floor plan featuring 3 bedrooms, including a junior suite, and 2.5 bathrooms. The junior suite provides additional privacy and flexibility for guests, extended household members, or a home office. Custom features include the junior-suite configuration, a whole-house vacuum system, upgraded kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, upgraded countertops and flooring, and recent improvements that have kept the home in excellent overall condition. Additional highlights include a whole-house fan and an oversized garage that provides more parking and storage space than a typical two-car garage. Step outside to an oversized covered lanai that extends the living space outdoors and overlooks a low-maintenance backyard ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Adding to the home's appeal, there are no two-story homes immediately surrounding the property, creating an added sense of openness and privacy. The home is also positioned at the corner of a desirable court, offering a unique setting that is increasingly difficult to find. Homes offering this combination of location, larger lot, flexible living space, custom features, thoughtful upgrades, and unique positioning do not become available often. The property also offers potential RV access, additional parking, and a solar energy system designed to help offset costly electricity bills. The solar system is not owned outright. Buyers are advised to verify the solar agreement, payment and transfer terms, RV access, dimensions, and suitability for their specific recreational vehicle or equipment.
