Enjoy direct access to the backyard oasis, complete with a covered pergola patio overlooking the heated saltwater pool. The fenced backyard is a serene urban retreat, featuring a sun-shelf pool, river rock landscaping, and lush, mature greenery for ultimate privacy—and the perfect place to enjoy sunsets. An adorable custom-built shed with a storage loft, electricity, and water offers versatile space for hobbies or extra storage. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered—from the freshly painted walls and ceilings (2023) to the high-end finishes throughout.
