Property Description

Boasting over $185k in premium upgrades, this turn-key 5-Bed, 3 Full Bath residence in Tamarack Ridge offers a sophisticated blend of high-tech comfort and outdoor luxury.

Upstairs, find a spacious bonus room and a Primary Suite retreat featuring a custom Northwest Closets designed walk-in and a connected 5-piece bath with a unique solar-powered skylight. The crown jewel is the private outdoor sanctuary: a fully permitted, engineered covered Brazilian Walnut deck with skylights, overhead lighting, and gas/electric BBQ hookups for the ultimate "outdoor living room," complete with a tranquil water feature, cozy gas fire pit, flagstone paths, and professional landscaping. Upgraded Marvin Glass windows with Hunter Douglas shades and newer roof ready for solar. New Furnace & Heat Pump in ’23. This one-of-a-kind home is near the HOA maintained community park & walking trail, and just minutes from local shopping and Hwy 18.
