Better than new and move-in ready, Just inside Sudden Valley's desirable Gate 3! Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this nearly new home enjoys a peaceful setting with minimal through traffic. The gently sloped driveway provides easy access year-round, while the main level features two separate living areas, offering flexibility for entertaining, working from home, or everyday living. Nine-foot ceilings create an open, spacious feel, and large windows bring in abundant natural light. The stylish kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, ample cabinet space, and a functional layout that flows seamlessly into the living and dining areas. Easy-care luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the entire home, with no carpet, providing a clean, modern look and low-maintenance living. Purchased new in January 2025, the home remains in exceptional condition and includes thoughtful upgrades such as an EV charger in the attached garage and additional landscaping that enhances the home's curb appeal and outdoor enjoyment. Backing to a community green space, the property enjoys added privacy and separation from neighboring homes, creating a more peaceful setting. Enjoy all that Sudden Valley has to offer, including access to Lake Whatcom, miles of scenic trails, parks, golf, marina access, beaches, and abundant recreational opportunities. Skip the wait for new construction and enjoy a home where the upgrades are already complete.
