About this home

Major Price Improvement--Now $80,000 Below Asking! Don't miss this opportunity! A Home Reimagined! What began as a modest 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 1,805-square-foot residence has been completely torn down to the studs and rebuilt expanded and reimagined into a beautifully designed 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom custom home spanning 2,605 square feet of refined living space. The exterior stuns with custom smooth-finish stucco, a bold custom steel front door, and thoughtfully designed concrete hardscape surrounded by lush Marathon natural grass. This curb appeal is only the beginning. Inside, 10-foot ceilings create a sense of openness and volume, while panoramic foldable patio doors lead to a custom California-style patio complete with a built-in fireplace, ceiling fan, and heater, designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Every detail was considered. The home features a 40-year, Title 24-compliant roof, Rockwool fire- and sound-resistant insulation, and Milgard double-pane, gas-filled windows throughout. The home is solar panel ready and powered by a 200-amp Siemens panel with a 125-amp subpanel. The kitchen is a showpiece with custom soft-close cabinetry, Calacatta Gold marble countertops, Emtek hardware, a 36" Shaws Shaker-style farmhouse sink, and Cafe' appliances including a fridge, double oven, cooktop, wine fridge, and exhaust hood. Prewired 220-volt outlets are installed in the kitchen, garage, and laundry room, offering flexible utility options. An electric vehicle charger is also installed in the garage for added convenience. All bathrooms feature custom tile work and high-end Brizo trim, while 8-foot solid-core interior doors with Baldwin ball-bearing hinges and luxury vinyl flooring throughout add warmth and quiet elegance. Comfort and convenience abound with dual Bosch heat pumps for zoned climate control, Nest smart thermostats and smoke/CO detectors, a Bosch tankless water heater with recirculation pump, and a Pentax whole-house water filtration system. A fully finished and insulated 40x20 four-car garage provides space for vehicles, a workshop, gym, or bonus area. And for those who value connectivity, cat 6 Ethernet runs throughout the house for easy connectivity. The built-in surround sound system (Jamo/Bowers & Wilkins) and Lorex/Eufy security cameras add to the home's smart living appeal. This is more than a rebuild it's a complete transformation into a modern, efficient, and beautifully crafted home ready for its next chapter. Photos are virtually staged

Pros & Cons

Pros

Comprehensive Rebuild & Expansion: The property has been completely torn down to the studs, rebuilt, and expanded from 1,805 sqft to 2,605 sqft, offering a virtually new, custom-designed home.
High-End Finishes & Gourmet Kitchen: Features a showpiece kitchen with Calacatta Gold marble, Cafe' appliances, custom cabinetry, and luxurious touches throughout including Brizo trim, solid-core doors, and luxury vinyl flooring.
Advanced Smart Home & Energy Efficiency: Equipped with dual Bosch heat pumps for zoned climate control, Nest thermostats, tankless water heater, whole-house water filtration, solar-ready infrastructure, and robust insulation/windows.
Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living: Panoramic foldable patio doors lead to a custom California-style patio complete with a built-in fireplace, ceiling fan, and heater, ideal for entertaining.
Exceptional Curb Appeal & Versatile Garage: Stunning exterior with custom smooth-finish stucco and steel front door, complemented by a fully finished and insulated 40x20 four-car garage with an EV charger.

Cons

Virtually Staged Photos: The listing explicitly states photos are virtually staged, which may not accurately convey the true scale or feel of the rooms when viewed in person without furniture.
Absence of Luxury Outdoor Amenities: Despite a large lot size (9,569 sqft) and high-end interior, the property lacks common luxury outdoor features such as a pool, spa, or extensive custom landscaping beyond the patio, which might be expected at this price point.
Recent Price Adjustment: The 'Major Price Improvement' of $80,000 below asking, while beneficial for buyers, indicates the initial pricing may have been aggressive or that the property has faced some market resistance.
