Outstanding custom-built House Works home in one of Carmichael's most desirable neighborhoods. A welcoming entry with mature trees & a wooden bridge over a tranquil water feature that leads to a thoughtfully designed home with oversized rooms, soaring ceilings, and a private backyard. The living and family rooms each feature striking yet very different fireplaces and the spacious dining area is ideal for gatherings. The kitchen includes granite counters and a breakfast nook overlooking the pool. Downstairs is completed with a richly paneled office (5th bedroom), 2 additional bedrooms, 2 full baths, a powder room, a second office, and a generous laundry/mudroom. Upstairs: a light-filled en-suite bedroom and an oversized primary suite with balcony and a cozy alcove featuring a charming fireplace perfect for quiet relaxation... an intimate space that adds a touch of comfort. Extensive use of wood and marble add character and warmth. The peaceful backyard includes a lawn area, a freeform heated pool, and spa. Minutes to sought-after public and private schools, shopping (Raley's, Wholefoods, Bel Air), restaurants/coffee shops, Life Time Fitness, and just mile away from Sacramento's Jewel, the American River Parkway with miles of jogging, walking, biking trails and abundant wildlife.
