This bright, inviting home, harmoniously integrated with nature, awaits its next family. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped 1/2 acre at the end of a cul-de-sac in Goldenview, it's one of the few properties of this size in the development. Greenbelts on the north and south sides ensure privacy, while the extensive landscaping includes a rock retaining wall with a stone path offering inlet views, and space for a picnic table or gazebo. The fully fenced backyard is perfect for pets, children, or play, and includes a maintenance-free Lifetime playground and high-producing raspberry bushes. Four raised garden beds await your next harvest, and a gate from the yard leads to the Goldenview playground and nearby school bus stop. Inside, large windows flood the space with natural light, complemented by 18-foot ceilings in the foyer and great room. Elsewhere, ceilings maintain a 9-foot height. The master bedroom and informal dining room feature bay windows with serene views of trees and lush greenery, adding to the sense of privacy. The home has been thoughtfully updated over the past few years with new paint, 7-inch crown molding, and elegant lighting, including a sparkling chandelier in the foyer and Jonathan Adler sconces in the great room. The great room also boasts a custom 18-foot desert quartz rock wall with a gas fireplace and African Mahogany mantel. The kitchen, ideal for chefs, offers ample cabinet and counter space, maple cabinets, granite countertops, under-cabinet lighting, and stainless steel appliances, including a gas cooktop. 5" wide Jatoba hardwood and premium vinyl floors add warmth and durability. The upstairs master bath features a Jacuzzi soaking tub, a large tiled shower with two showerheads, and a walk-in closet, while the guest and master bathrooms have double sinks and granite countertops. The spacious Trex deck, with a pergola, is reinforced for a hot tub and includes a natural gas line for a grill. The large front porch, recently refinished, is perfect for seasonal decor or relaxing by a Solo Stove. A mudroom with built-in cubbies, a stainless-steel sink, and an extra-large 3-car garage with ample storage and workspace complete this well-appointed home.
