Builder's former model home in Prestonwood, and it still shows! Oversized windows keep the open-concept main level and primary suite bright all day. Slab granite counters, custom cabinetry, millwork, and hardwood on parts of the main level. Primary suite with California Closet built into the walk-in closet and an upgraded shower. The loft's office nook adds space that's hard to find at this price. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, including a gas cooktop. All appliances stay! Step outside to two private fenced patios, piped for gas BBQ. An extra-wide two-car garage and plenty of guest parking. No rental cap. Radiant heat and a tankless hot water system, both real upgrades over standard construction, plus a gas fireplace, all inside a Built Green certified community. The oversized upstairs laundry room offers real flexible space. The HOA covers exterior painting, roofing, gutters, fencing, yard care and snow removal, so upkeep is one less thing to manage. Five minutes to Ash Way Park & Ride. Six minutes to I-5. Nine minutes to Alderwood Mall, with a brand new elementary school across the street. Schedule a private showing, this one's worth seeing in person!
