Description

A true pride & joy listing to present and offer to the most selective Santee buyer. SPECTACULAR Offering in Rarely Available Mesa Heights -- West Santee! Steps away from Mission Trails Park. Absolutely panoramic western Cowles Mountain views. We start with the manicured and perfectly maintained backyard: Pebble black bottom saltwater pool with spa, drought tolerant plants, turf, and covered patio area. The pool has a mechanical electrically operated pool cover. This backyard has extreme WOW factor. Easy slider door access to the backyard from the family room is instant indoor-outdoor living. Double height ceilings in the living room, this executive home has five bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, with a convenient bedroom (now office) and a full bath downstairs. Formal entry; bright light everywhere. Dual paned vinyl windows and looks-like-new white vinyl shutters. There is an easy flow from the tiled entry to the living room, then to the separate dining area and onward to the updated kitchen with new counters, appliances and refinished cabinets. The kitchen is open to the spacious family room with gas fireplace. Oversized three-car garage, laundry room inside the home on the main floor. Real pride of ownership is found throughout each room and in all details. Primary suite with bath upstairs: dual sinks, separate tub, walk-in shower, separate toilet room, walk-in closet and a second closet in the bedroom. There are three additional roomy bedrooms upstairs plus a lovely third full bath. This is a solar home with minimal if any electric bills. Higher capacity A/C was added -- also powered by solar. Low flush toilets and water-saving showerheads make water conservation a breeze. All upstairs bedrooms have ceiling fans with lights. This property has been exquisitely and lovingly maintained by the same owners for 30 years. See why THIS home checks all of the boxes on your wish list. Swimming under the stars on summer nights awaits you.
