More Insights

Built in 1990 (36 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1990, presents as virtually new due to extensive and high-quality renovations. The kitchen is a prime example, featuring sleek, modern integrated stainless steel appliances, custom flat-panel wood cabinetry, pristine white solid-surface countertops, and contemporary backsplash and lighting, all appearing to be very recent updates. The main living areas boast newly installed or refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, and modern light fixtures, contributing to a bright and current aesthetic. While the primary bathroom's shower enclosure has a slightly older gold-toned frame, the overall 'spa-inspired' design, jetted tub, updated vanities, and clean tile work still reflect a high standard of maintenance and recent partial updates. The property shows no signs of deferred maintenance and meets current quality standards throughout its visible components, making it an excellent, move-in ready home.

About this home

Bay views in Sequoyah Hills! In this 3,200-square-foot sanctuary, volume and light are the primary materials. Soaring ceilings invite a connection between the interior and the shimmering bay view beyond. Living, dining and family rooms all transition seamlessly to serene outdoor spaces. The landscape is maximized for modern leisure. A sprawling hardwood deck steps down to a precision-manicured turf lawn, while a dedicated firepit and patio provide curated zones for entertaining against a backdrop of panoramic views. The kitchen is designed for the culinary gourmet. Sleek appliances are integrated with custom cabinetry and expansive prep surfaces, anchored by a grand breakfast bar and large eat-in space. The primary retreat hosts a spa-inspired bath, featuring a jetted soaking tub overlooking the garden, complemented by dual walk-in closets. Outside awaits a private pergola, offering a quiet escape to the outdoors. A fourth bedroom doubles as separate office space or den, and sits astride the generous family room. A three-car garage with car charger completes the program, ensuring the logistics of daily life are all attended to.
