This beautifully updated 3-bdrm, 2.5-bath home blends modern convenience with custom charm and energy efficiency. Step into spacious kitchen featuring granite counters, center island, recessed lites, gleaming oak cabinetry and top-tier appliances including a new Bosch DW, KitchenAid double ovens and Thermador hood. Enjoy hardwood floors thru-out (real OAK), newer windows, dual AC and ceiling fans. Large formal rooms (LR,FD & FR) for entertaining and hosting holiday gatherings and a 2-sided FP in LR&FR. Bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled w/new mirrors, tile floors and custom glass enclosures. The master bath is a true retreat w/elegant Italian designer tile and a stacked stone shower, dual lavs and dual shower heads. Outdoors you'll find a landscaped grassy front yard w/ a succulent/cactus garden, and a vibrant grassy backyard w/fruit trees, vegetable beds, flowering plants, patio and a white wood pergola draped in jasmine and trumpet vines - complete w/lighting, a fan and a large jacuzzi SPA. And of course a large lawn PLAY area complete with swing set! Copper plumbing, solar panels (owned), new energy-efficient AC unit upstairs, and new Samsung washer in the full-size laundry room (off kitchen and off attached garage with direct access). A move-in ready gem that combines quality upgrades with a tranquil, garden-filled lifestyle. Close to many Houses of Worship, kosher market, bakeries, pizza & falafel shops. Close to the 170 fwy and downtown access but oh so quiet here on Rhodes Ave., a prestigious block filled with multi-million dollar mansions.
