About This Home

As of March 2024

Welcome to your dream home nestled in the renowned Lower Birds neighborhood in Mesa Verde. This alluring 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home spans over a comfy 2,418 sq ft, all situated on a generous 7,227 sq ft lot. Sweeping you off your feet upon your first glance is the stunning curb appeal of a turf front lawn juxtaposing charming white siding, stacked stone trim, and custom hardscape. As you step into the inviting entrance, your attention will be captured by the bright living room filled with natural light that accentuates the gorgeous fireplace dressed with a custom tile and wood mantel. Adjacent to the living room is a spacious office featuring stunning glass panel accordion and barn doors. The kitchen is aesthetically amazing and equally functional, revamped with quartz countertops, gleaming custom tile backsplash, Thermador stainless steel appliances including built-in-fridge, and chef's hood. Adding charm to the room are classic white shaker cabinets, pendant lighting, and an eye-catching island with waterfall leathered granite countertops. The open dining area just off the kitchen provides direct access to the serene backyard through beautiful sliders. The ground floor also houses an elegant powder bathroom and a grand master suite which comes equipped with dual walk-in-closets and an en-suite bathroom, featuring a standalone tub, a walk-in shower, a floating vanity, and stylish hexagon tile flooring. Venturing the wood-accented stairs leads you to the other three comfy and spacious bedrooms, along with an upgraded full bathroom boasting a dual vanity and standout finishes. The private backyard oasis features custom hardscape, an above-ground spa, turfed yard with raised planters, and a visually appealing shed. The home comes with modern essentials such as white oak flooring throughout, a dual zoned AC, dual pane windows, recessed lighting, and most impressively, owned solar panels, a Tesla battery, and even EV charging! Conveniently located next to the magnificent Fairview Park walking trails, premier Mesa Verde Country Club, high-end dining options, convenient shopping, and excellent schools, this property embodies the true spirit of Mesa Verde. Not to mention, you'd be joining the famous Lower Birds 4th of July neighborhood parade and car show! Do not let this opportunity slip away.
