About This Home
As of January 2025Have you been looking for a lakefront mini-resort with pool, spa, boat dock, large grassy yard, 3 car garage, balcony, patio, overlooking the sunset views on the water? Forget San Diego! This updated lakefront home has a nearly impossible combination to find in Dobson Ranch. Step inside to soaring ceilings, an updated kitchen with pull-out drawers, granite counters, an inviting fireplace, dual living rooms, and a dining room and half bath all downstairs. Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms, including the large primary suite with its exit to the balcony where you can watch the sunset over the lake in utter serenity. There is a large flagstone patio, spiral staircase, multiple seating areas, pub lighting, 2 separate grassy areas, pool with removable fencing, spa, and brick steps down to a private boat dock with a beehive fireplace. Located near the intersection of the 60 and the 101, you can be almost anywhere in the Valley in 15 minutes or less. Dobson Ranch has fresh water and is, in fact, part of SRP's canal system and has water flowing through it unlike most of the man-made, stagnant lakes in the East Valley. You can boat, kayak, paddle board, and even fish in the lakes. The lake in total is nearly a mile long and is great for long, relaxing boat rides or just enjoying sunset views. Dobson Ranch as a community has multiple community pools, a splash pad, playgrounds, extensive walking paths, 4 rec centers, a dog park, tennis courts, pickleball courts, over a dozen clubs and tons of neighborhood activities all for for less than $60/month in HOA fees. Over the last decade on average only 3 lakefront homes in Dobson Ranch sell per year. Come find out why Dobson Ranch is the hidden gem of the East Valley! Don't miss your chance!
