Formerly showcased as a model home, this beautifully upgraded residence offers thoughtful design, generous space, and exceptional functionality throughout. The open-concept floor plan is anchored by a dramatic great room with nearly 22-foot soaring ceilings, creating an impressive yet inviting atmosphere ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike. The first-floor primary suite is privately situated on its own wing and features direct outdoor access, offering a true retreat. The first floor also features an additional bedroom and full bathroom while the second floor has two more bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a large bonus room that provides flexible living options, perfect for a media room, home office, or play space. Updates include the addition of an oversized walk-in pantry and a large laundry room with exterior access, owned solar, newer exterior paint, water heater, and fencing. The private backyard is large enough for a pool and has a serene water feature, patios, lawn area, and storage shed. Set on a spacious, level lot, the home also features a quaint front courtyard, side-entry garages with ample additional parking, and potential RV or boat storage. Conveniently located near I-80 and Sierra College, and within the boundaries of highly regarded Rocklin schools, this home is also close to shopping, dining, parks, and recreation, offering the ideal balance of comfort, convenience, and lifestyle.
