Nestled within the gated Enclave of Mission Hills Ranch lies a distinctive estate home unlike any other. With over $400k in upgrades, this meticulously maintained property sits on a private 120-foot-wide greenbelt lot with lush, professionally designed landscaping. A covered kitchen pavilion, tree-shaded flagstone patio, expansive covered patio, stunning pool, and tranquil waterfall collectively create a picturesque resort-like ambiance. Enter into a grand living space with a soaring 25-foot vaulted ceiling adorned with wood beams, a striking windmill fan, exquisite lighting fixtures, and solar tubes that flood the room with natural light. The kitchen has been fully updated with Kitchen Aid appliances, including a warming drawer, custom storage pullouts, a wine/beverage fridge, and an extendable custom island. Quartz countertops and custom tile work accentuate the abundant counter space, complemented by above and under-cabinet lighting. A unique butler's pantry adds to the kitchen's functionality.
