About This Home

As of August 2025

Tucked into the rolling landscape of Parten Ranch, 296 Running Bird Rd is a custom-designed sanctuary offering sweeping greenbelt views and a saltwater pool and spa that transform everyday living into resort-style luxury. This expansive estate spans 3,210 square feet, seamlessly blending architectural sophistication with effortless comfort. From the moment you arrive, the home reveals its attention to detail—bespoke finishes, soaring ceilings, and natural light that dances across wide-plank level 5 wood-look tile floors. The open-concept layout is anchored by a chef’s kitchen designed for both form and function, featuring a butler’s pantry, wine fridge, and oversized island perfect for gatherings large or small. Just beyond, the living room flows onto a covered patio with retractable screens, a gas fire pit, and grilling setup—all overlooking the tranquil greenbelt, private xeriscaped yard and glistening pool below. The primary suite is a retreat of its own with a spa-style bath complete with a deep soaking tub and a custom Lauren Master Closet. The secondary bedrooms are all en suite and include Elfa closet systems for sleek, streamlined living. The dedicated home theater invites immersive movie nights, and the refined office space offers an ideal setting for focused productivity. With a three-car garage, EV pre-wiring, Ring security system, and thoughtful upgrades like a mudroom with built-in bench, a laundry and craft room, and a fully turfed backyard for low-maintenance elegance, this home is turn-key in every sense. 296 Running Bird Rd is more than a residence—it’s a lifestyle curated for those who value design, scale, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Note: owners willing to install green privacy screening if requested as part of buyer credit.
