Property Description
Located on an expansive 17,000+ sq ft lot in desirable Sherwood Forest, this home sits on a picturesque, tree-lined street. Enter through dramatic double doors into an impressive great room that combines living and dining spaces, with a step-down secondary family room. Two fireplaces anchor the space, creating warmth and character. The spacious kitchen features a peninsula with bar seating, stainless steel appliances, and offers a solid footprint ready for personalization and updating. The north wing of the home includes three bedrooms, two with direct access to the backyard. The opposite wing offers a private primary en-suite with its own fireplace, spacious walk-in closet, travertine steam shower with rain shower feature, and backyard access. The expansive yard provides exceptional flexibility and includes a detached pool house (not technically an ADU) with a kitchen, bathroom with laundry, and a separate bedroom-style space. Outdoor amenities include a large pool with built-in spa, sport court- which can be used for pickleball, basketball (hoop included), or a number of other racket or other sports, sauna, built-in gas BBQ, mature trees, including apple and loquat trees, and generous grassy areas. With its substantial lot size and existing layout, the property presents a rare opportunity for thoughtful updating, expansion, and/or potential ADU possibilities, subject to buyer verification, permits, and local zoning requirements. A compelling offering for buyers looking to create something special in one of the Valley's most sought-after neighborhoods.
