Welcome home to one of the most thoughtfully upgraded properties in the neighborhood -- where standout features, smart design, and sits on a coveted north/south lot that delivers shade on both patios year-round. Arrive to a spacious front patio and make your entrance through elegant double doors into a proper foyer -- a rare find in this area. Inside, a split floor plan (another neighborhood standout) gives everyone their own corner of the house. The open living and dining area is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and flows naturally to the kitchen and beyond. The remodeled kitchen is a true chef's workspace: updated cabinetry with deep pull-out drawers, a farmhouse sink, quartz countertops, an induction cook-top with pot filler, and a built-in oven/microwave with convection setting, essentially a double oven on demand. The island adds counter and storage space, while pass-through windows to the back patio make entertaining seamless indoors and out. The primary suite is a genuine retreat, complete with a built-in wardrobe in the en-suite bath. Double sinks in both bathrooms -- a detail you won't find in most comparable homes here. Wood-look tile, canned lighting, and quality finishes throughout tie it all together. Step outside and enter your own private resort. The covered patio is built for gatherings -- equipped with misters, ceiling fans, a Ramada, and a BBQ grill. The remodeled PebbleTec pool features a Baja shelf and basketball hoop, making it the ultimate Arizona oasis. Additionally, two generous side yards add more space for a dog run or other projects. The garden space is extraordinary. Raised garden beds on a timed irrigation system currently produce rosemary, multiple pepper varieties, mint, and pumpkins, while a mature orchard of lemon, mandarin, peach, pomegranate, and grape plants rounds out a true gardener's dream backyard. Additional highlights: attached garage with extra storage space (many homes in this area have only a carport), and year-round natural shade from the north/south orientation.
