About this home

Stunningly remodeled Emerald Hills home with panoramic canyon views and an exceptional opportunity for additional living space or future income. Offering approximately 1,200 sq ft upstairs plus a ~500 sq ft partially finished basement with separate access, this unique property sits on an R-2 lot and offers flexibility rarely found at this price point. The light-filled main level features an open-concept floor plan with modern earth-tone finishes and a beautifully appointed kitchen showcasing quartz countertops, stylish tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious breakfast bar peninsula. The inviting primary suite offers a spa-inspired bathroom with a chic dual-sink vanity and oversized tiled shower. Downstairs, the approximately 500 sq ft basement provides tremendous flexibility for a future ADU, guest suite, home office, gym, or additional living space (buyer to verify). The two-tiered lot offers privacy, outdoor potential, and beautiful canyon views that can be enjoyed from multiple areas of the property. Recent improvements include updated plumbing and a newer roof. Conveniently located near parks, shopping, dining, schools, and major freeways, this is a rare opportunity to own a remodeled home with exceptional flexibility and future upside in desirable Emerald Hills.
