Thoughtfully remodeled Hilltop ranch offers bright, open one-floor living with timeless finishes throughout. Renovated as a custom homeowner remodel, the updates were completed with intention, quality, and long-term livability in mind. Set on a private, fully fenced, 9,370 sq ft lot, the home sits slightly elevated above the street, creating a quiet, retreat-like feel with exceptional privacy.
The main living space is filled with natural light from large windows and anchored by a cozy gas fireplace. Fresh paint and refinished hardwood floors create a warm, cohesive backdrop. The kitchen features white quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a peninsula for morning coffee. A newly remodeled pantry/utility room includes quartz counters and custom cabinets. A charming Dutch door connects directly to the backyard for seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The family room adds flexible living space and opens through dual French glass doors to a flagstone patio, extending the home beautifully for entertaining or relaxing. The dining area connects easily within the open layout, and a dedicated office/den or additional family room provides ideal work-from-home space.
The primary suite is expansive and serene, complete with a walk-in closet and a luxurious five-piece bath featuring a soaking tub framed by windows and greenery, a rainfall shower, and heated concrete zellige tile floors. Two secondary bedrooms are bright and well-sized, and the hall bath has been recently updated.
Outside, a professionally landscaped backyard feels exceptionally private with mature trees, garden beds, a large flagstone patio, and a tucked-away hot tub nook. An attached two-car garage and crawl space offer excellent storage. Major systems are new or newer, including windows, doors, furnace, HVAC, AC, irrigation, water heater, and appliances.
