Welcome to this extensively updated home in Fireside at Desert Ridge. The Isabella floor plan offers a true great room on the main level, a dedicated office, an oversized primary suite, and a large upstairs loft that lives like a second gathering room. Three bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a corner lot that is larger than many Isabella homes in the community. The main level is built for everyday living and entertaining. The great room opens to the kitchen and dining areas and gives the home an easy flow from the front of the house to the backyard. The office is set apart from the great room, so it works as a quiet workspace or a flexible fourth living space without counting as a legal bedroom. Upstairs, the primary suite is generously sized, and the loft is large enough for a media room, play space, or gym. The home has received a whole-house finish and systems refresh. Wide-plank Malibu Point Loma French oak flooring runs through the main living areas, with new 6-inch baseboards, new door hardware, new closet doors, and new lighting throughout, including three ceiling fans. The interior has been fully repainted. The kitchen features new granite counters, sink and faucet, a Pandoro Lantern marble mosaic backsplash, refreshed cabinetry in Accessible Beige with new hardware, a new GE dishwasher, 2024 Samsung refrigerator, new disposal, and an Apex reverse-osmosis system. All baths were updated with new granite, Kohler fixtures, tile, lighting, and hardware. The primary bath includes Luna Pearl porcelain, a Carrara penny-mosaic shower floor, a pebble decorative band, and a new shower enclosure. Dual 2024 HVAC systems with Ecobee thermostats are noted as still under warranty. Newer washer and dryer (2022) convey. Outside, the larger lot supports a private pool, new backyard turf, irrigation improvements, additional landscaping, outdoor low-voltage lighting, a refurbished pool system with a new cleaner, and 2022 exterior paint. The garage has a new epoxy floor, fresh paint, and an updated entry keypad. Fireside is the lifestyle piece. Residents have a 12,000-sf clubhouse, heated resort and lap pools, spas, fitness center, pickleball and tennis, playgrounds, walking paths, and year-round community events.
