A HOME BUILT AROUND WELL-BEING, SECURITY AND COMFORT Every improvement in this residence was made with one purpose: to create a home that feels as good as it looks. Behind the walls, the work most buyers worry about has already been done. The plumbing has been fully replaced with clean new lines, the electrical system has been completely updated, including a new main panel, and the water heater is new. The air conditioner was replaced in 2021, and the duct system was re-engineered for efficiency, then sealed with Aeroseal, reducing duct leakage by 93%. The result is quieter, more even cooling and conditioned air that goes where it belongs. Clean living is built in. A HALO LED whole-home air purification system works continuously through the HVAC, while water filtration and a water softener complete a thoughtfully designed healthy-home package, including a dedicated filtered-water faucet at the kitchen sink. Peace of mind begins at the front door. The custom-built entry door features steel inlays, solid-core construction, triple-lock security and high efficiency ratings. The sliding patio door offers multiple locks and energy-efficient performance, and the windows have been upgraded to thicker, high-efficiency glass designed to hold back the Arizona heat in the living areas and bedrooms. THE KITCHEN The kitchen is both beautiful and serious about cooking. Polished emerald-black granite counters glow beneath under-cabinet lighting, complemented by a black undermount composite sink and matte black fixtures. The appliance suite is top tier: an LG Signature refrigerator with GE Cafe induction range, microwave and dishwasher, all with approximately four years of remaining warranty coverage. PRIVATE RETREAT AND MODERN CONVENIENCE The primary suite features a fully remodeled walk-in shower with custom tile and a generous, spa-like footprint. Upgraded carpet adds softness underfoot, and smart home technology throughout includes automatic lighting, app-based controls and a wall-mounted control panel, so the home responds to the way you live. THE TATUM RANCH LIFESTYLE Set within the gated enclave of Tatum Greens near the 4th hole, this home places you in one of Cave Creek's most established master-planned communities. Tatum Ranch is home to a private golf club with optional membership, two community parks with picnic areas, playgrounds and sport courts, winding walking and biking paths, and multiple shopping and dining centers close to home. The community is served by Cave Creek Unified School District. For those drawn to the outdoors, the high Sonoran Desert is right outside your door.
