Under contract-accepting backup offers. Located in the highly sought-after Huntington neighborhood, this 2,760 sq ft home sits on just under half an acre, offering a rare combination of space, privacy, and convenience in one of the area’s most desirable communities. Now restored to its original 4-bedroom layout, the home offers four true bedrooms, multiple living areas, and a more functional floor plan. The reconfiguration adds valuable bedroom count while preserving the home’s generous overall square footage, flexible common spaces, and strong appeal. Inside, the home opens with soaring ceilings that carry through the main living areas and into the primary suite, creating a sense of volume that is hard to find. The layout centers around a large open kitchen and living space that functions as the heart of the home. The kitchen stands out for its size, layout, and functionality, with extensive counter space, a large center island, breakfast bar seating, and abundant cabinetry. It opens directly to the main living area, allowing for easy flow and connection throughout the home. The living room is anchored by a custom built-in wall with fireplace and shelving, while a full wall of windows brings in natural light and views of the pool and backyard. The ceiling height and openness make the space feel expansive without losing comfort, and the layout offers multiple options for furniture placement and gathering. The primary suite continues the theme of scale and separation, featuring its own fireplace, a custom feature wall, and a spacious bathroom with soaking tub, walk-in shower, and generous layout. Outside, the screened-in pool, recently resurfaced, anchors the backyard and is complemented by a covered patio with built-in wet bar, an extended paver patio, and a dedicated firepit area. Mature trees line the rear property line and create a strong sense of privacy. The property also offers practical advantages, including an extended driveway with ample parking, a large two-car garage with extended ceiling height, and a side yard with a double gate for hidden boat or trailer parking. Major updates have already been completed, including a new roof in 2018, pool heater in 2019, updated kitchen appliances with a newer dishwasher in 2022 and oven in 2026, pool resurfacing in 2024, and both the pool pump and one HVAC unit replaced in 2025. A well-rounded property that delivers on space, layout, flexibility, and indoor-outdoor living in one of the area’s most desirable neighborhoods.
