    Exceptional Home completely upgraded using an open-concept kitchen-to-living layout in highly desired Lowell Joint School District—an opportunity rarely found at this price.

The kitchen is the centerpiece of this detail rarely seen at this price point. It features elegant shaker-cabinetry, solid-stone salt-pepper and gold countertops, peninsula seating, recessed lighting, an ultra-premium Waterstone 3100-AP pot filler—a top-tier, chef-grade fixture valued around $2,000. This signals the quality mindset behind a forever home not a fix it up to sell type. Also included a full suite of stainless steel appliances: refrigerator, oven/range, dishwasher, and microwave. Above the gray glass tile backsplash sits a high-end stainless steel & glass exhaust vent hood, giving the space the elevated, gourmet feel. The open-concept layout ties the kitchen seamlessly into the adjacent living and dining areas, creating a bright, comfortable, modern flow. Completely upgraded bathrooms follow the same standard of quality & a custom barn door bath entrance in the spacious master bedroom. Additional improvements thru-out home include newer dual-pane windows & sliding door, interior plantation style shutters, recessed lighting, custom barn-beam fireplace mantel that adds warmth and character. Garage has been finished as additional living space with drywall, walls and ceiling recessed lighting, a mudroom-style entrance, built-in cabinetry, and a pull-down attic with plywood flooring and lighting for exceptional storage. Washer & dryer are conveniently located in the garage’s laundry area are included as well. A newer water heater, newer HVAC A/C system, and upgraded 200 amp electrical panel round out the major upgrades. Spacious backyard features a covered patio, a large grass lawn area, newer fencing, and a above-ground pool area with properly prepared leveled ground sand base, and pebble surround designed for long-term durability & wisely integration into the far corner of yard. Great location in well-established East Whittier neighborhood served by the Lowell Joint School District, including Jordan Elementary and Rancho-Starbuck Intermediate, this home combines premium upgrades with one of the area’s most consistently desirable locations. And at $899,000, it offers a level of value and quality rarely available in this market.
