About This Home
As of July 2025Less than 5 minutes from Foothill Blvd, nestled in the supremely serene neighborhood of Briggs Terrace, sits this entertainer’s home, complete with pretty much everything a buyer could want. Enjoyed by the sellers for 25 years, and surrounded by stunning mountain views, it is easy to see why they loved living here for so long. The main level boasts a brand-new open-concept kitchen with solid wood cabinets and stunning views of the backyard and mountains. You'll also find two spacious living areas, a formal dining room, three ample bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a convenient utility room—all offering plenty of room to spread out and relax. Upstairs, the true primary retreat awaits. It features vaulted ceilings, two oversized walk-in closets, a separate large office (5th bedroom), a huge bathroom, and two balconies that showcase even more mountain views. The backyard is perfect for entertaining or unwinding, with a large patio, grassy area, a beautiful pool and spa, and—of course—more mountain scenery. An oversized two-car garage, double-pane windows, copper plumbing, central heat and A/C and located within the sought-after Mountain Avenue Elementary school boundary round out this exceptional home.
