Backing up to a private greenbelt, this meticulously maintained home has been thoughtfully updated and is completely move-in ready. With the primary suite, secondary bedrooms and a dedicated office all located on the main floor, the layout offers the ease of single-story living with the added versatility of a full bathroom and a generous flex space upstairs—perfect for a media room or a simple conversion into a 4th bedroom. Inside, newly installed wide-plank flooring flows through the main level, complemented by contemporary baseboards, fresh paint and designer lighting. The heart of the home is a spacious living area anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, flowing seamlessly into a kitchen designed for those who love to cook, featuring a gas cooktop, convection oven, abundant cabinetry, ample counter space, a Bosch dishwasher and updated microwave. The primary suite is a true retreat tucked away at the rear of the home. It offers peaceful nature views, soaring ceilings, the convenience of dual vanities and two walk-in closets. Outside, the extended covered patio is the ideal spot for a morning coffee while taking in the privacy of the greenbelt. Functional upgrades abound, including an oversized deep garage with extensive overhead storage racks, surround sound pre-wiring in the family room and flex space and a whole-home Gemstone soffit lighting system that allows you to customize multiple exterior lighting schemes right from an app. Set on a tree-lined street with no neighbors to one side or the back in the heart of the sought-after Sweetwater community, this home has been lovingly cared for by its original owners and is ready for its next chapter. The amenity-rich neighborhood provides residents two beautiful resort style pools, a community only fitness center, pickleball, sand volleyball & basketball courts, dog park, numerous pocket parks throughout, miles of hiking & biking trails and community sponsored events & activities.
