About This Property

Enjoy peaceful mountain views that add a beautiful backdrop to this thoughtfully designed single-level home, tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. With flexible living spaces, modern updates, and a layout that just feels right, this is the one you've been waiting for. Framed by sweeping mountain views and tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in one of the area's most established and desirable neighborhoods, this thoughtfully designed single-level custom home offers a rare blend of privacy, flexibility, and elevated everyday living. Spanning 2,472 square feet, the home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, including two primary suites—an ideal setup for multi-generational living, extended stays, or private guest accommodations. The main suite is a true retreat, offering a spacious walk-in closet, soaking tub, and oversized walk-in shower, all complemented by serene mountain views that create a calm, spa-like atmosphere. At the heart of the home, the remodeled kitchen blends functionality with style, featuring a gas cooktop, generous counter space, and a breakfast nook perfectly positioned to take in the surrounding scenery. Expansive sightlines from the living room, sunroom, and back deck showcase those same stunning views, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection that defines Northern Nevada living. Recent improvements—including new A/C, furnace, water heater, and upgraded appliances—provide modern comfort and efficiency, allowing the next owner to move in with confidence. Additional highlights include hardwood flooring, a bright sunroom with a built-in bar (sink and refrigerator included), and a versatile office or fourth bedroom with private access to the front patio—ideal for a home office, creative space, or guest suite. The fully landscaped property is equally impressive, offering RV parking, a 3-car garage, and extended driveway. Outdoor living is exceptional, with two pergola-covered decks and a spacious deck designed for entertaining or simply relaxing while taking in the unobstructed mountain backdrop. A partially finished basement adds valuable flexibility, perfect for a home gym, workshop, or additional storage. Ideally located for both convenience and lifestyle, the home is approximately 10 minutes to shopping, dining, and grocery options, 15 minutes to downtown Carson City, and 30 minutes to Reno, with Lake Tahoe just 35-40 minutes away for year-round recreation. Nearby elementary, middle, and high schools are all within a short 5-10 minute drive, adding to the home's overall accessibility and long-term appeal. Combining a custom floor plan, meaningful updates, and a setting that captures some of the area's most beautiful views, this home presents a rare opportunity to enjoy space, comfort, and scenery in one exceptional offering.
