A SWEET SPOT ON A CUL-DE-SAC IN THE KELLOGG SCHOOL DISTRICT. This well-maintained 3BR/2BA home blends bright, comfortable interiors with indoor-outdoor living. Wood-laminate floors blend seamlessly with carpet, for contrast and comfort. Spacious living and family rooms each feature fireplaces and backyard access. In the bright kitchen, fully custom soft-close KraftMaid cabinets contrast with light quartz counters. A primary suite with dual corner closets and bathroom equipped with handrails also offers slider to the front entry and driveway for more autonomy. In the fenced backyard are raised garden beds, fruit trees, a grey-water system, and bistro lights casting an ambient glow. A/C, Rain Bird irrigation, rooftop sprinklers, screened gutters, and 2-car garage with washer/dryer included. ADDITIONAL PROPERTY DESCRIPTION WITH MORE DETAILS: The entry sets a welcoming tone, with the living room's dual focus of a stone fireplace and French doors that open to the enclosed backyard. The adjacent dining room with a bay window flows into a bright kitchen whose dual pane bay window lets the sun shine in! Updated KraftMaid oak cabinetry incorporates soft-close drawers, an appliance garage, and clever toe-kick storage drawers to maximize hands-free functionality. Quartz countertops are complemented by a gas cooktop, a wall oven, a Samsung refrigerator, and ample room for a center island. Vaulted, contrasting-beam ceilings in the open family room add dimension with ambient lighting above. The second fireplace creates a focal point, while a sliding glass door from this central hub opens out to the yard beyond. (mounted tv included) The primary suite features L-shaped mirrored closets, an en-suite bathroom equipped with safety handrails, and a sliding door with light-filtering plantation shutters that offers access to the front yard and driveway. Two additional bedrooms and a hall bathroom equipped with safety handrails complete the floor plan. The backyard is an extension of the home with glowing bistro lights, raised garden beds, and seasonal fruit trees, including avocado, nectarine, and citrus. An eco-conscious rain barrel and grey-water system reflect thoughtful stewardship. Only a couple of blocks from Calle Real, and near the Kellogg tennis/pickleball courts, the location offers everyday conveniences and fun, while the quiet street holds intrinsic value as a well-placed property.
