About this home

Rare privacy on an oversized homesite inside Encore, premier 55+ community--no neighbors behind, none along an entire side, and no windows on the 3 car garage wall. This premium lot lives like a private retreat with room to add a pergola, garden, water feature, outdoor kitchen, or pool, on a desert landscaped yard. Inside this beautiful home, imported tile throughout creates a seamless flow. The kitchen features dark honed-granite countertops, 6 burner gas cooktop with SS vent, and white cabinets reaching 10-ft ceilings. A 12-ft slider opens the great room to the backyard. The primary suite offers a soaking tub, custom tiled shower, and water closet. A versatile third bedroom--currently styled as a home office--easily functions as a guest room, study, or bedroom to fit your lifestyle. **Rarely available, this sought-after Cinema model** is a standout in Encore at Eastmark, offering 2,334 square feet on a 9,002 sq. ft. lot -- larger than most, with privacy that's hard to find. The lot backs to an HOA-maintained walkway and a wash, so there are no neighbors behind you. One side borders green space with its own HOA-maintained walkway, meaning no neighbors on that side either. The third side of the home is where the laundry room and garage sit, with no windows facing that direction -- giving this homesite exceptional privacy on nearly every side. Inside, the formal dining room offers true flexibility -- easily converted into a bedroom, hobby room, or lounge to suit your lifestyle. The generous guest bedroom includes a walk-in closet for added storage. Every window throughout the home is dressed with **custom plantation shutters**, a high-end and costly upgrade that adds timeless style, privacy, and light control in every room. Upgraded 9-foot interior doors with 6-panel detailing add a substantial, elevated feel throughout. The **primary suite** is a true retreat, featuring a custom-tiled, level-entry shower designed for easy accessibility -- ideal for wheelchair or walker access if ever needed. The oversized primary closet offers abundant storage, and the primary bath also includes a linen closet and a relaxing soaking tub. The **kitchen** is where this home truly shines. Highly upgraded cabinetry features tongue-and-groove, solid wood drawer construction, with wood pull-out shelving in the lower cabinets for effortless organization -- every cabinet and drawer closes with a soft, quiet motion. A 6-burner gas cooktop is framed by a striking glass tile surround, with the vent hood extending all the way to the 10-foot ceiling -- the kind of craftsmanship typically reserved for high-end custom homes. Practical living is just as impressive: the **oversized laundry room** includes a walk-in storage closet with room to add cabinets if desired, and the **expanded garage** comfortably fits three cars, a golf cart, and still leaves room for additional storage. **Sellers will credit buyers at closing for some backyard landscaping** -- a rare opportunity to personalize the outdoor space to your taste from day one. **Life at Encore** means resort-style amenities every day of the week: pickleball courts for every skill level, tennis, bocce ball, a breakfast and lunch café, billiard room, craft and art studio, fitness center, movement room, media room, community library, ping-pong, and card & game rooms. Stay active with men's and women's golf groups playing at discounted local rates, or cheer on Encore's competitive men's softball team. A brand-new heated pool and spa are underway now, opening this fall. Miles of private, paved, lighted, HOA-maintained walking trails let you explore the neighborhood without ever leaving home. As an Encore resident, you'll also enjoy the broader Eastmark community -- duck and turtle ponds, fishing ponds, disc golf, a skate park, several dog parks where your best friend can meet and play with other pups, and an outdoor amphitheater hosting First Friday concerts and food trucks. Saturdays bring the Eastmark Farmers Market, with fresh produce from Steadfast Farm, an organic working farm right in the community park. Steadfast Farm is a destination in its own right, featuring a farm-to-table restaurant, a small organic market, and a coffee stand serving specialty drinks and breakfast tacos -- all an easy walk or bike ride away. A new state-of-the-art library sits just a short walk from Encore, and a new Sprouts Market, opening shortly, is less than a 5-minute drive -- making this community as accessible as it is up-and-coming. **This rare combination of privacy, upgrades, and unmatched community living won't last long. ---
