Overview

Don't miss this remarkable custom built home in the South of Grand community. Thoughtfully situated on this tree-lined lot - lots of privacy, and spectacular sunrise views from your 4 season room. There's more outdoor space to enjoy those views on the renovated deck. In addition to the main floor living room, dining area, breakfast nook, kitchen and 4 season room, there is another living space on the upper level with 3 large bedrooms. The primary ensuite is flooded with natural light with access to outdoor space on the deck. Huge primary bath with tiled shower, lots and lots of windows and a relaxing tub. Walk-out lower level has so much more living space that includes a wide open living room and soda fountain, an office with its own back door entrance. This is truly a home for entertaining, yet still maintains cozy corners to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Unbeatable location - close to downtown and freeway access.
