Property Description

SOLAR LOAN WILL BE PAID OFF IN FULL AT CLOSING ALL WARRANTIES WILL TRANSFER TO BUYERS. (Average energy cost 0-$48 a month).
Welcome to 7928 Hillside Trail S, a thoughtfully updated home located in one of Cottage Grove’s most established and sought-after neighborhoods. Surrounded by mature trees and seamlessly connected to a network of parks, walking paths, and schools, this setting offers an ideal balance of comfort, convenience, and community — all just minutes from shopping, dining, and easy freeway access.

The main level features a bright, inviting layout with three bedrooms on one level, a spacious living and dining area, and rich hardwood floors that add warmth and character throughout. The kitchen stands out with custom wood countertops, a distinctive and environmentally conscious feature admired by both past and current owners, offering charm, sustainability, and a truly one-of-a-kind feel.

Sustainability plays a meaningful role in this home’s design. In addition to the eco-friendly wood countertops, solar panels installed in 2021 significantly reduce energy costs while supporting long-term efficiency, environmental responsibility, and added home value. These green features make the property both cost-effective and future-forward.

The lower level offers exceptional versatility and opportunity. Recently painted and ready for personalization, it provides the potential to add additional bedrooms with egress windows, a second bathroom, a fitness or recreation space, or a completely reimagined floor plan. A large laundry room with new washer and dryer, generous storage, and a dedicated workshop complete this level.

Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers privacy and year-round enjoyment. Mature trees, thoughtful landscaping, and a newly installed fire pit create an inviting space for quiet evenings or entertaining friends and family. The property also offers ample space to expand the garage, add a carport, or park recreational vehicles — a rare and valuable feature in this area.

Major updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof (2024), luxury insulated energy-efficient siding (2024), and an updated electrical panel (2021). Solar panels installed in 2021 further enhance efficiency, sustainability, and long-term savings.

Storage is abundant throughout the home, featuring oversized closets, additional basement storage, and extra garage space — keeping everything organized and easily accessible.

With its meaningful updates, flexible layout, and prime location in a highly loved neighborhood, this home offers a rare blend of comfort, functionality, and future potential. Fiber-optic internet and smart, energy-efficient features add yet another layer of value to this exceptional property.
