About This Home
Welcome to this meticulously maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home in the sought-after community of Stonewater Creek, where comfort and style meet single-level convenience. Nestled on nearly a half-acre lot backing to a peaceful tree line, this Insight Home offers not only impeccable design but also industry-leading energy efficiency.
From the moment you arrive, the home impresses with lush landscaping, a winding Pinnacle concrete walkway, multiple roof peaks, and a charming blend of vinyl and shaker-style siding. The side-entry garage adds to the home's attractive curb appeal, while a 4-foot extension provides added interior living space. An irrigation system ensures the lawn and gardens remain vibrant with minimal effort.
Inside, the gourmet kitchen is a true standout, featuring a 5-burner gas stove, stainless steel appliances, crisp white soft-close cabinetry with crown trim, pull-out drawers, a pantry, and a classic subway tile backsplash. The breakfast bar is illuminated by lovely pendants, perfect for casual meals, while a separate dining room with crown molding offers an elegant setting for special gatherings.
The spacious dining area and living room are enhanced by a soaring cathedral ceiling and a cozy gas fireplace, creating an open and inviting space. Glass sliding doors lead to a screened porch and a generous deck—ideal for outdoor relaxation or entertaining.
The private primary suite includes two closets (one walk-in) and a well-appointed ensuite bath with a granite-topped dual sink vanity, soft-close cabinetry, a stall shower with frameless glass door, and bench seating. Two additional bedrooms are located at the front of the home along with a full bath featuring a quartz vanity—perfect for guests or family. A convenient laundry room with upper cabinetry connects directly to the garage. Outside, a storage shed offers additional space for tools and lawn equipment.
