The remodeled Primary Suite provides a luxurious retreat with its upgraded bathroom finishes. Additional features include a convenient Murphy bed (included with the home), rain gutters, newer air conditioning system, and built-in storage cabinetry in both the kitchen and garage. Step outside and enjoy the custom outdoor living space, complete with an inviting fireplace and a built-in BBQ with direct gas connection—perfect for weekend gatherings and sunset dinners. Situated within walking distance to the Blue Ribbon Melinda Heights Elementary School and close to two large parks and community pools, this home offers the perfect balance of comfort and convenience.
