Description

Some homes check all the boxes... this one raises the standard. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Gilbert within the highly sought-after gated community of Stratford Estates, this stunning 5+ bedroom, 4.5 bathroom luxury home offers the ideal blend of elegance, functionality, and true Arizona indoor-outdoor living... all just minutes from San Tan Village, Mercy Gilbert Medical Center, and the 202 Freeway. From the moment you arrive, you'll feel the difference. Beautiful stone and iron gated entrances welcome you into a community designed for connection, featuring three lush parks complete with outdoor kitchens, fire pits, playgrounds, and sport courts. Inside, the home is light-filled, open, and thoughtfully designed. Wood-look tile flooring, custom lighting, and elevated finishes...

Supplements: create a warm yet sophisticated feel throughout the main living spaces. The heart of the home... a show-stopping chef's kitchen featuring a massive quartz island, custom white cabinetry, built-in stainless steel appliances, a butler's pantry, and an additional walk-in pantry... designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The flexible floor plan offers a dedicated downstairs den perfect for a home office, while upstairs you'll find a spacious loft ideal for a media room, playroom, or teen retreat. The primary suite is a true sanctuary... oversized, serene, and beautifully appointed with expansive walk-in closets, dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower. One of the standout features... a direct connection from one of the primary closets into the oversized laundry room, creating a thoughtful and highly functional everyday luxury. Upstairs living is thoughtfully designed with two bedrooms sharing a hall bath, while an additional two bedrooms enjoy their own private bathroom... creating ideal separation and comfort for family or guests. And then... the moment that truly sets this home apart...A dramatic 20-foot stacking glass wall opens completely to a resort-style backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience that defines Arizona living at its finest. The backyard is an entertainer's dream... featuring a covered patio, outdoor fireplace, built-in grill, beverage fridge, ceiling fans, and a stunning pool with stone-stacked waterfall, baja step, water features, and a heated spa. Additional highlights include a 4-car tandem garage, paver driveway, fresh interior and exterior paint, custom shutters and blinds, and upgraded hardware throughout. This is more than a home... it's a lifestyle. And opportunities like this in Stratford Estates don't come often.
