Description
First time on the market in 26 years and worth the wait. Tucked into the prestigious Silver Creek subdivision on a rare 1/3 acre lot, this four bedroom, three-and-a-half bath home will surprise you from the moment you arrive. The cottage garden front yard, bursting with wildflowers, bulbs, and native plants in a raised garden bed, sets a charming and unassuming tone. Step through the gated entry, past a bubbling fountain, and into your own private sanctuary. Once you walk through the front door, everything changes. --- Real hardwood floors and large format tile flow throughout, not a single inch of carpet. Soaring ceilings, crown molding, and oversized picture windows fill the home with natural light, while thoughtful updates at every turn reflect 26 years of loving ownership by the original family. --- The fully renovated kitchen is the heart of the home, open to the breakfast room and family room, and it delivers. Custom slab-front modern cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers, stone slab countertops, a five-burner gas cooktop, upgraded appliances, a spacious island with breakfast bar seating, a pantry, and a show-stopping hand-carved granite apron front sink. The bright breakfast room flows seamlessly between the kitchen and family room, making this the hub of everyday living. Wooden French doors open from the family room to the covered patio and expansive backyard, blending indoor and outdoor living seamlessly. A gas fireplace anchors the family room, and the formal living and dining rooms are framed by those gorgeous picture windows looking out over the lush, private backyard.
The primary suite is a true retreat, spacious and serene, with a large walk-in closet and direct backyard access. The en suite bathroom has been completely transformed with modern soft-close custom cabinetry, slab countertops, hand-carved granite vessel sinks, brass fixtures with granite knobs, a stone slab walk-in shower with rain showerhead, heated floors, a towel warmer, and a wall-mount Toto toilet. Three additional bedrooms each feature custom built-in cabinetry and a one with a built-in desk, no afterthought storage here. The conveniently located half bath serves the main living area near the laundry room and side access door. The laundry room includes a folding counter and generous storage.
Step outside and the lot delivers in every direction. The oversized three-car garage handles the everyday, and a separate gated and paved RV and boat parking area keeps the extras tucked away safely. The entire lot is a gardener's paradise, with a cottage garden bursting with wildflowers, bulbs, and native plants out front and mature shade trees, fruit trees, established garden beds, a pergola, and a huge grassy yard out back. --- And when it comes to the big picture, this home is as dialed in as they come. Block wall fencing means you will never worry about rotting fence boards. A stucco exterior, nearly brand new roof, and tankless water heater keep maintenance low and efficiency high. And as an added bonus, this home is served by affordable REU utilities, keeping monthly costs where they belong. --- Perfectly positioned in one of Redding's most convenient and desirable pockets, this home is surrounded by other high-end properties and just minutes from the preserve walking trails, where peace and nature are always within reach. --- This is Silver Creek. Just not the Silver Creek you expected.
