A wonderful home that has undergone extensive updating. The 4,672-foot floorplan is modern with a large living room and dining room. The kitchen was completely renovated in 2023 with a wonderful quartzite center island for an eat-in kitchen experience. Two dishwashers, Viking cooktop, Subzero fridge, beverage fridge--all new. The kitchen overlooks an expansive family room with a fireplace, soaring ceilings and large new windows. South light floods the area. The home has a breezeway with mud room/storage that leads to a completely enclosed yard/patio with composite decking. No maintenance! There are clear sightlines from the kitchen to the family room to the enclosed patio. Attached 2.5 car garage with storage. Upstairs are three bedrooms and two baths. The primary is large with two walk in closets. All bedrooms have cathedral ceilings. Second bath was completely redone in 2018. Laundry is on this floor. The fully finished lower level has a rec room, ample storage, a bedroom, and office (could be another bedroom) with an additional full bath. Everything about this house is clean, neutral, and very well-maintained. New AC in 2020, and new asphalt shingle roof in 2025 with 7-year transferable warranty. This home is in a prime location near Wrightwood Park, Mariano's, Prescott Elementary, Webster Theatres, great restaurants, and major highways. This won't last. Great value for Lincoln Park
