Beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence in the sought-after Cypress Greens community of Carmel Mountain Ranch. Built by Shea Homes in 2008 and owned by the original buyer, this top-story end unit is positioned above the garages with no units below and windows on three sides, creating exceptional privacy, natural light, and a layout that truly lives more like a single-family home. Inside, the thoughtfully upgraded living space features hand-scraped distressed engineered hardwood flooring (see suppl) throughout the main living areas, bedrooms, and kitchen. The kitchen is both stylish and functional with stainless steel appliances, including a recently installed quiet-run dishwasher and microwave, quartz countertops, and a convenient two-seat eat-at bar. A custom built-in storage and shelving feature adds character and smart functionality to the dining area. The living room is anchored by a wall of southeast-facing windows, dressed with plantation shutters that flood the space with beautiful morning light, while the fireplace creates a cozy place to unwind in the evenings. Step outside to your private patio, with direct access from both the family room and the primary suite—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Additional highlights include a security system, a direct-access one-car garage with overhead storage racks, plus a deeded surface parking space, offering two total parking spots. Ideally located directly across from the community pool, spa, and outdoor gathering areas, this home also enjoys NO Mello-Roos taxes, easy access to shopping, dining, and major commuter routes, and all the benefits of Carmel Mountain Ranch living.
