Property Description
The finished portion of the basement is approximately 1200 sf, making the total livable area about 4700 sf. This fully finished basement with high ceilings has a separate media room and a large laundry room with shelving. (custom modification) There is a partially finished "art room" next to the laundry area adjacent to plumbing and electrical lines to easily build out a full bath. In the main area of the basement, there is a large open space with a pool table and recreational room. The pool table may remain. The basement has hardwood floors throughout the entire finished area. There is a large unfinished utility room in the basement.
The entire home was repainted a neutral white and most of the carpeting replaced with laminate in January/February 2025. There is one child's bedroom partially painted in red. The "fish room" has carpeting.
The front door has a keypad locking system. The foyer has a vaulted ceiling. As you walk down the hall, you will enter the family room featuring a wall of windows looking out into the backyard oasis. The downstairs is a semi-open floor plan. (custom modification) It has an opening between the family and living room to expand the overall feel of the space. To your right of entry there is a den opening to a large family room. In the family room, there is a gas fireplace and built-in surround sound speakers. The den or 'fish room' will require new carpeting after the owners vacate the property due to a custom saltwater aquarium. To your left of the entry is the dining room featuring a tray ceiling with recessed lighting.
The main level features a bedroom (currently used as an office). The room has beautiful hardwood floors which were installed in 2021. Between the garage, office/bedroom and kitchen is a full bathroom. The kitchen features granite counters, upgraded soft-close cabinets, including a lazy Susan, pull out shelving, and spice draws. There is a butler's pantry with glass door cabinets. The oven, range, and microwave are included. It is a gas double oven and range.
The kitchen features a breakfast nook with a sliding glass door exiting to the backyard deck. The backyard has a custom deck spanning the length of the house. To the left, is a custom outdoor kitchen with granite countertops, nestled under a gazebo. The outdoor kitchen includes a gas grill and full-size refrigerator. The gazebo is 24x13 comprising the kitchen, built-in seating with storage, and a sitting area. There is a cantilever counter-top for sitting. The deck and gazebo wrap around a saltwater pool with a slide. There is also a hook-up to install a waterfall. There is custom lighting on the deck which highlights to the pool at night. The outdoor living space is capable of being used year-round. The pool was installed in 2019 and the deck/kitchen in 2022.
There is an oversized two-car garage with shelving installed for additional storage. There is also a direct hook up for a generator to power the house, as well as a transfer switch at the main circuit breaker box.
The second level features 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Three of the bedrooms feature custom recessed lighting. There are custom mirrors in each bathroom. All of the bedrooms, except the princess suite have ceiling fans with lighting.
The 'princess suite' includes a private custom bathroom and walk-in closet. The closet has been built out with custom California Closets shelving, including a window bay seat. This room is perfect for a teenager or college student living at home. There is a second smaller bedroom at the top of the stairs, the 'red' room. Down the hall is the third bedroom with an adjacent full bathroom.
Finally, the master suite is absolutely divine. The home is the only house on the street to have his and hers walk in closets. As you enter through the French doors, you will find a large walk-in closet to your left, again with custom California Closets built-ins. There are locking drawers, pull out tie and belt racks, and built in laundry hampers. The closet also contains access to a large unfinished attic.
The master suite has two distinct sitting areas you will walk through to the get to the master bath. The bathroom features an oversized jacuzzi tub, separate walk-in shower, two sinks, upgraded cabinets and a large wrap-around granite countertop. There is a private toilet room. Also located inside the master bath is a custom California Closet the size of a bedroom. The closet features hardwood flooring, custom lighting, glass display cases, a laundry hamper, custom lighted jewelry drawers, pull out shelves, soft close drawers, etc. This is a must-see room and the photos don't do it justice.
