Welcome to this truly unique home in the highly sought-after Old Farm neighborhood. Perfectly situated next to Chapparel Open Space, this home blends the convenience of city living with the feel of the countryside. The mature community boasts tree-lined streets, beautifully maintained yards, and neighbors the seller fondly describes as “the salt of the earth.”
Step inside and you'll be greeted by vaulted ceilings and a striking brick wall designed as a passive solar feature—skylights warm the bricks, which then release heat through the upper vents to help warm the home naturally.
To your right, a spacious kitchen offers abundant storage, pull-out shelves, and a two-tier breakfast bar—perfect for casual dining or cooking alongside a friend. Just beyond, the dining room (currently enjoyed as a family room) opens to a charming front flagstone patio. The breakfast bar connects seamlessly to the living room, where soaring ceilings and a cozy gas fireplace create an inviting space for gathering.
The primary suite is generously sized with both a walk-in and a walk-up closet, plus an attached ¾ bath designed for convenience with a separate sink area to ease busy mornings. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level, along with a laundry area featuring a nearly new washer and dryer.
Upstairs, the loft provides endless possibilities—whether you need a fourth bedroom, a home office, a creative studio, or a media/gym space. Built into the hillside for energy efficiency, the home still offers a lush grassy yard along with xeriscaped areas for low-maintenance living.
