Meticulously transformed with over $100,000 in top-tier improvements and energy-efficient systems, this home delivers peace of mind, modern elegance, and effortless indoor-outdoor living.
OVER $100,000 IN MAJOR SYSTEM & CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
Every major system has been updated, ensuring years of low-maintenance enjoyment:

Windows & Energy Efficiency: High-efficiency dual-pane windows (front replaced Sept 2022; remaining updated prior) paired with custom solar tinting on sun-facing exposures, helping the home earn energy-efficiency ratings from SRP for maximum monthly savings.
REFINED INTERIORS & THOUGHTFUL FINISHES

Owner's Suite Sanctuary: Features a fully updated en-suite bathroom (Dec 2024/Dec 2021) complete with a custom tiled walk-in shower (replacing the former sunken tub), fresh tile surrounds, an easy-clean skirted toilet, and a private dog door (May 2022) for pets.
Guest Bath: Beautifully updated (Aug 2023) featuring a heavy-duty cast iron tub with custom tile surrounds, tile floors, and modern skirted toilet fixtures.
The exterior showcases a complete landscape transformation designed to impress around the clock:
Stunning Nightscape Lighting: Low-voltage landscape lighting accents the lush greenery and architectural features, creating incredible curb appeal and an inviting ambiance after dark.
Timeless Elevation: Features a full classic brick facade that never requires painting, paired with fresh full exterior paint on remaining surfaces (Apr 2023) and a new garage door (March 2023).
Custom Hardscaping: Beautiful new paver driveway, front walkway, grand entry, and spacious rear paver patio (Jan 2023).
