Elevated from the street, sited on a beautifully manicured ~6500 sq ft lot, is a split-level home with seamless indoor-outdoor flow and over $230,000 in quality improvements. This home proudly features 4 bedrooms plus a flexible 5th bedroom/office/den, 2.5 bathrooms, formal and informal dining, and a great room connected to the kitchen and to the renovated, wrap-around yard.

Kent Ranch is a community of 153 single-family homes and 2 community parks, located in northeast Escondido, with easy access to the 78 and 15 freeways, and just 10 minutes from Dixon Lake recreation center.

The seamless indoor-outdoor flow of this home begins at the newly created front porch, surrounded by a beautiful stone wall with two custom wooden gates: one that expands your living area from the front entry, creating an intimate location to capture cool breezes and watch the neighborhood activity, and the other that leads to the renovated backyard. Upon entering the home from the porch, you get the first glimpse of how the home will satisfy both the contemporary and traditional homebuyer, with its perfect combination of an open concept floorplan, coupled with intimate rooms for more formal living. The communal gathering area of the combined great room, informal dining room and kitchen features a gas fireplace, stainless steel appliances, granite counters, recessed lighting, and a garden window. These rooms overlook the expanded and renovated backyard, complete with a large concrete patio, lush grassy area, fruit trees, pergola, and Sundance Spa with waterfall spillway. The light-filled formal dining room, which is adjacent to the kitchen and to the right of the entry, also features a french door with direct access to the yard. The first floor is completed by a professionally enclosed living room, suitable for a home office, den, exercise room, or guest bedroom.

The spacious primary en-suite bedroom, located a short flight of stairs above the main floor, has an impressive double french door entry and north-facing windows allowing natural light to fill the room. The recently refreshed en-suite bathroom is complete with a soaking tub, stand up shower with custom glass surround, dual vanity sinks, and a large walk-in closet. Up another short flight of stairs, are 3 light-filled bedrooms and a hall bath with dual vanity sinks and shower/tub combo.

The two-car garage, half bathroom, and full laundry room are located on the level below the main floor. With additional overhead storage racks in the garage and Tuff shed outside the pedestrian garage door, there is plenty of storage in this home. Additional improvements include: newer interior and exterior paint, exterior and landscape lighting, new HVAC and whole house fan controlled by NEST System, 200 amp electrical panel and breakers, newer carpets and luxury vinyl tile flooring, entire roof renovation completed during solar installation, security system, and tinted windows for added heat reduction.
