A 3,000-square-foot home on Sylvan Road with a history of fluctuating sales prices is still on the market after seeing a $150,000 price drop to $1.1 million last month.
The five-bedroom, four-bathroom, two-story house located at 6444 Sylvan Rd. in Citrus Heights is currently listed for sale at $1.1 million after an Oct. 17 price drop from $1.25 million. The 3,048-square-foot home was built in 1930, according to real estate site Zillow, then most recently sold in 1999 and returned to the market in 2020 at a listing price of over $2 million.
The home has a long history of price changes. The house was taken off the market in 2020 after being listed for almost two months and dropping in price to $1.8 million. In 2021, the property was relisted for $1.15 million and again removed, then relisted in 2022 for $997,000. After a pending sale in June 2022 fell through, the price continued to drop in increments until it was removed for a third time in November 2022.
Photos on Zillow show the front of the home has four large white columns that reach two stories high, along with a small fountain. A detached garage has enough room for three cars, and a large, open driveway provides ample space for guests.
According to the listing, the nearly 1.5-acre property includes a detached full-service salon with two bathrooms, as well as a separate building close to the main house. The landscaped lot is designed for entertaining guests, with features like two dishwashers, double ovens, and an outdoor tent. According to owner Janis Shoemaker, who spoke with The Sentinel previously, the house was a tow yard when originally purchased, and Shoemaker and her husband “did a ton of work” on the property over the last two decades.
Currently, only one other home is listed in Citrus Heights with a price tag over $1 million. The home on Challis Court, listed for $1.199 million, boasts three bedrooms, three bathrooms and 3,700 square feet. The price dropped from $1.3 million in September.
Shoemaker did not return a request for comment before press time.
