Set on an expansive 11,900 sq ft lot, this 2,414 sq ft residence seamlessly blends modern updates with timeless charm.
A welcoming brick pathway leads to double entry doors that open to a light-filled, freshly painted interior featuring soaring ceilings, brand-new plank flooring, and a fully re-piped plumbing system. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes a formal living room, dining room, full bathroom with walk-in shower, and a main level bedroom—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. With its tranquil setting and proximity to the main living areas, it’s also a great option for a home office, playroom, or hobby space. An Interior Laundry Closet and Direct garage access adds convenience.
The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with sleek granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinetry—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The adjacent family room showcases a custom-built entertainment center, a striking stacked-stone fireplace, and sliding doors that open to the backyard retreat.
Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite offers dual granite vanities, a soaking tub, a separate walk-in shower, and generous closet space. Three additional bedrooms and a full guest bath complete the upper level, each accented with charming details like wainscoting, chair rail molding, and plantation shutters.
Step outside into your private backyard oasis—complete with lush landscaping, mature trees, and a stunning rockscaped pool and spa. The outdoor space is ideal for relaxing or entertaining, while fully paid solar panels, a newer energy-efficient roof, and a variable-speed pool pump offer eco-friendly peace of mind.
Enjoy all the amenities Serrano Park has to offer, including tree lined walking paths, 2 playgrounds, 2 pools, 4 tennis courts, a sand volleyball court, and a clubhouse. With top-rated schools, scenic hiking trails and regional parks, and a variety of shopping and dining nearby, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, and convenience.
