An oversized loft with built-in bar is perfect for game room or media space. Secondary bedrooms feature walk-in closets along with full bath & convenient upstairs laundry.
The third floor functions as a true private suite with bedroom, bath, large loft & walk-in attic closet.
The low-maintenance yard provides ease of living while the park directly across the street offers expansive outdoor space including field playground tennis basketball & community pool and spa effectively extending your backyard without the upkeep. The backyard offers privacy with no direct rear neighbors featuring a custom putting green & lush landscaping. The lot sits elevated with trees & a landscaped walkway behind the property creating a pleasant buffer.
Interior living is quiet & comfortable with ample storage built-ins & driveway parking for four vehicles — features that support everyday convenience. Additional highlights include leased solar & a 1-year home warranty included for peace of mind. A rare opportunity to own over 4,000 sq ft in a highly functional layout designed for modern living.
