About This Property
Come see this stunning, turnkey single-story home tucked away in the hillside, with beautiful views out back. This home is one of the few to sit up high with west-facing views spanning Mount Helix, Fletcher Hills, and even Cowles Mountain. Upon arrival, you'll notice the oversized driveway and appreciate the low-maintenance landscaping. Step inside to a living room with hardwood floors that glow with natural light by day and a cozy fireplace at night. This home offers three bedrooms: two with sliding door access to the backyard, and one that would function wonderfully as an office or bookworm's sanctuary, complete with a built-in bookshelf. Both bathrooms are thoughtfully updated, one is an ensuite to the primary bedroom. Like much of the home, the kitchen was renovated in 2019. It features gorgeous custom cabinets, Samsung appliances, and quartz countertops. Enjoy your meals in the dining room with an afternoon breeze, or step through the slider to the back patio and dine al fresco. The deck invites you to unwind out back with your morning coffee, evening sunsets, and even enjoy holiday firework shows. New pavers and a retaining wall have expanded the backyard, making it perfect for lawn games, a play structure, or even additional living space if you ever choose to expand. This home stays comfortable year-round thanks to a whole-house fan, newer central HVAC, dual-pane windows and sliders, a newer roof (5 years old), updated electrical, and extra insulation on the exterior walls. Anyone who enjoys working with their hands will love the two-car garage, which the current owner has used as a hobby workshop. And, yes...the built-in workbenches, shelves, and chest freezer convey. The owner has truly set 1488 Lily Ave. up for longevity and it's ready for someone new to call it home!
