42716 N 44th Dr., New River, AZ 85087

Great location as it’s nestled in a curve of the neighborhood and allows for extra space on the side yards and no house facing you or behind. This lovely Engle home welcomes you through the front door with pretty stain glass inlays and the open space will joyfully surprise you. The great room concept is enhanced with a formal dining room, an inset entertainment niche that can handle electronics and decorations, next to a fireplace with a matching tile hearth. Kitchen includes an island with raised bar, sleek stainless appliances, oh so desirable dark cabinetry and plenty of it with an extended buffet, gas stub, double door pantry. There is also a den off the great room which could be a 4th bedroom if desired, the plan is split giving extra serenity in the master and a bay window too! Luxuriate yourself in the Jacuzzi bathtub or separate shower, vanity with double sinks and plenty of storage, the master closet with fantastic built-ins. Most of the flooring is a desirable larger ceramic tile laid in the diagonal pattern, laminate in the den and new carpet in the bedrooms. The garage has a full wall of cabinetry and a sink. The rear yard has lovely shade trees from the community grounds so you get to enjoy them without having to maintain them! There is a nice covered patio which has a gas stub at the end making it a breeze to create your outdoor kitchen. Did we mention the location is within the award winning master planned community of Anthem?
