Almaden Valley 5-bedroom home with 1 downstairs, top schools and pool
If the beautiful Almaden Valley is your destination, this two-level home in the Mountain Shadows neighborhood should not be missed.
Tucked along a cul-de-sac location with inviting curb appeal, this home at 1079 Micro Court sits on a level 8,543-square-foot lot and features more than 3,100 square feet of living space with a fantastic private backyard designed for lots of fun and entertaining. Patios, a pergola, a built-in barbecue, a solar-heated pebble tec pool, garden beds, lush lawn, outdoor lighting, and wide side yards offer the perfect outdoor sanctuary and extension of the updated interior.
At the southern end of the valley, the neighborhood is within a half-mile of the Mockingbird Hill Lane trailhead entrance to Almaden Quicksilver Park, 4,000 acres of open space, and miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails. Views of the surrounding mountains also enhance its peaceful setting.
The two-story foyer is a welcoming entrance into this five-bedroom, three-bathroom property. The fifth bedroom is super large (no closets) and would serve as a great bonus room. A vaulted ceiling, three palladium-style front-facing windows and hardwood floors enhance this spacious room that also has a gas fireplace. Step down into the formal dining room with crown molding, a large picture window framing the side gardens and a chandelier suspended from decorative medallion molding. The room is designed to accommodate large gatherings.
The heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen, extends into a casual dining area, and the large family room is also anchored by a gas fireplace. A sliding glass door offers easy access to the backyard. Fresh and bright, the kitchen is updated with white cabinetry with custom pullout shelves, sleek quartz counters and backsplashes, and a garden window over the stainless farmhouse sink. A bay window with plantation shutters enhances the adjacent casual dining area with a built-in buffet with upper glass-faced cabinets and a quartz counter and backsplash.
A main-level guest room with a walk-in closet is near a newly updated bathroom with a porcelain tile floor, quartz-topped vanity and a tub/shower combination.
A spacious bonus room is located at the top of the stairs behind a double-door entry.
