5301 Tioga Ln, El Dorado, CA 95623

Picture an evening on the covered porch: the pool glowing below, a spacious balcony overhead and something good coming out of the gourmet kitchen. This is 5301 Tioga Lane, 5 gently rolling, usable acres with no HOA, a 4-stall barn and arena, owned solar and an 864 SF detached workshop offering intriguing possibilities. Extensively renovated and expanded from 1,728 SF to 3,249 SF (per county records), the home nearly doubled in size while retaining its warm country character. The living room, with wood-burning stove and sunset views, is where evenings slow down. The generous eat-in kitchen is made for people who love to cook and gather, with a Miele range and steam oven, custom walnut island, quartzite counters, coffee bar with its own faucet and a walk-in pantry with its own freezer. Another wood stove warms the kitchen dining area, which opens directly to the covered porch. The primary suite is a true retreat with vaulted ceilings, motorized shades, walk-in closet and spa-like bath with clawfoot soaking tub and walk-in shower. Above the garage wing, a spacious media room wired for Atmos surround sound and an adjoining office offer privacy for work, hobbies or guests. A fourth bedroom with its own half bath and private balcony adds flexibility (staged as a den in the photos; no closet). The grand entry room, currently formal dining and piano, could easily become another gathering space. Wide-plank hardwood floors, heated floors in the full baths, tankless water heaters and two-zone heating and cooling add everyday comfort. Outside, swim in the custom saltwater pool, soak in the spa, garden in drip-irrigated raised beds or head to the 4-stall barn with power, water, lighting and automatic waterers in 2 stalls. An arena, round pen, seasonal creek and ample RV/toy parking complete the country setting. The 24' x 36' workshop is air conditioned and insulated with electricity and water, and may offer future conversion possibilities, subject to buyer investigation. A large shed adds storage. Owned 12.87 kW solar, installed in 2018, helps keep electric costs down. Right off Highway 49 with easy access to Highway 50, the location is convenient for commuting to Amador and Sacramento counties, with shopping nearby. Beautifully finished without feeling formal, Tioga offers high-end amenities with an approachable country feel. Best experienced in person.
