Outstanding Value On An Eco-Enhanced Home Significant improvements can be seen throughout the interior and exterior of this sophisticated home. The front yard has been re-landscaped with low-maintenance and water-saving desert landscaping. A new irrigation system with 4 main lines, drip lines and a landscape timer has been installed. Parking is a breeze with a 2-car garage, supplemental slab parking and a 3rd gravel parking spot. A formal entry welcomes you into the home. The great room is just beyond the formal entry and features vinyl plank bamboo flooring, which carries a 25 year warranty and is extremely durable & waterproof. Additionally, pieces can be replaced, if needed, without ripping up the entire floor surface. New baseboards, outlets, light switches, cover plates, ceiling fan, accent wall molding and air register have been installed in this space. The kitchen features neutral recessed panel wood cabinetry, new stainless steel appliances (including refrigerator, range, dishwasher and built-in microwave) and attractive tile countertops. The outlets, cover plates, light switches, light dimmers, double sink, faucet and soap dispenser are all newly installed. The recessed ceiling lights have been sealed and insulated, which has contributed to overall energy savings. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. All bedrooms feature new paint, outlets, light switches, cover plates, solid core entry doors, door moldings, knobs, hardware, closet doors and air registers. 3 of the bedrooms feature neutral carpeting and the 4th bedroom has new durable vinyl plank bamboo flooring and baseboards. The master bedroom is spacious and features private remodeled bathroom and a walk-in closet. The hall and master bathrooms have been tastefully-remodeled with gorgeous new vanities, sleek solid surface countertops, durable and waterproof vinyl plank tile flooring, sinks, faucets, dual flush toilets, shower fixtures, lighting, mirrors, paint, outlets, light switches and cover plates. The rear yard has been re-designed to take advantage of the overall space and views. The dining room opens via French doors to an expansive covered patio, making it perfect for indoor/outdoor living. Enjoy gorgeous views of the Phoenix Mountain Preserve (Shadow Mountain), which is less than 1 mile away from the home. A manageable plot of sod has just been set and is serviced by a new sprinkler system. Low-water, latticed bougainvillea and granite rock border the new grass area. New exterior gates and hardware have been installed and the entire yard is surrounded by block fencing for privacy. This exquisite remodeled home has been outfitted with many eco-friendly details that have improved its overall efficiency. A new roof was installed on the main house, with Owens Corning Oakridge lifetime shingles. The amber color of the shingles is the lightest color available, aside from pure white, and, therefore, reflects a large amount of sunlight, while still being an attractive shade. A new patio roof has been installed with new plywood and rolled roofing material. The A/C ductwork throughout has been cleaned and new flexible supply ductwork was installed. Additionally, the entire home has been equipped with an advanced venting system, which requires no energy to run. There are ridge vents and soffit vents, which work together to create a passive attic system, on both the house and the garage. They activate when outside air enters the attic through the soffit vents at the eaves of the roof. Then, as the air heats up, it rises and exits through the ridge vents at the peak. Therefore, there is a constant flow of hot air being cycled out of the attic, rather than being trapped inside, heating up the home. The venting system is installed above and beyond the requirements of the current building code, for attic ventilation systems. The overall roof, attic and cooling system upgrades, along with the sealing and insulating of the kitchen recessed lights have cut the summer energy bills by over 40%. These types of thoughtful improvements are rarely seen in this area and price point. This home is a natural choice, if you are looking for the best value on a quality remodeled home
