Built in 2004 and beautifully updated, the home opens into a light-filled great room where a vaulted ceiling, corner fireplace, built-in shelving and large windows create an inviting centerpiece for everyday living and entertaining. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the home, while granite and quartz countertops add timeless finishes throughout. The spacious kitchen features abundant workspace and storage along with a new induction range (2025 and new dishwasher (2026), and opens naturally to the main living areas. A separate dining room provides additional space for gatherings, while acoustical treatments added to the living, dining and kitchen ceilings help reduce sound and create a more comfortable open-concept environment. The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy between the owner's suite and secondary bedrooms, while a portion of the original garage has been thoughtfully converted into a generous flex room or home office. The remaining garage space retains a functional garage door and provides valuable storage for bikes, tools, seasonal items and outdoor equipment. The home is also prewired for security and includes a Ring doorbell and security cameras. Step outside to discover what truly sets this property apart. The 16x32' in-ground saltwater pool is surrounded by an oversized paver pool deck designed to function as an extension of the home. Two lighted gazebos create dedicated spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining or relaxing poolside, while integrated deck lighting transforms the space after sunset. A terraced planter with drip irrigation adds dimension to the landscaping, and a custom-built storage shed designed to complement the home provides attractive and practical outdoor storage. The paver driveway, entrance pillars with solar lighting, six-zone irrigation system and Hunter Hydrawise smart controller complete an exterior that has been thoughtfully planned from the curb to the pool. Important improvements add even more value, including a newer roof (2022) and new A/C compressor (2026). The saltwater pool has also received recent equipment upgrades, including a variable-speed pump and a new chlorine generator motherboard and cell (2026), allowing the next owner to spend more time enjoying the backyard and less time thinking about what's been replaced.
