24 Puesto Road Set within a desirable 55+ setting, this thoughtfully designed residence pairs an open, light-filled floor plan with exceptional flexibility, including two bedrooms on the main level plus an expansive upstairs loft with a full bath and built-in closet-ideal for extended-stay guests, a caregiver, or use as a third bedroom. At the heart of the home, beautiful dove gray cabinetry creates a sophisticated backdrop for striking granite countertops, a dramatic solid granite backsplash, and a chimney-style stainless steel hood. The oversized adjoining dining area is grounded by dual pendant lights, while floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the space in natural light. Rare cornerless stacking doors disappear to create a seamless connection between indoors and out, allowing the California Room to become a true extension of the living space.

The main-level primary suite offers generous proportions with space for a king-size bed and a ceiling fan for added comfort. The ensuite bath features a seamless step-in shower with bench seating, dual-sink vanity with quartz countertops, walk-in closet, and private water closet. Tucked down a separate hall off the kitchen, the secondary bedroom and adjacent full bath with tub/shower provide wonderful privacy for guests or an ideal home office. Thoughtful storage continues throughout the home with a built-in mudroom/drop zone just as you enter from the garage and an oversized under-stair closet that can conveniently serve as additional pantry storage. Upstairs, the spacious loft offers tremendous versatility with its built-in closet and full bath, creating a private retreat for guests, a caregiver, or additional living space. Ceiling fans, plantation shutters and real wood floors throughout add beauty and comfort for elevated living. Positioned at the front of the motor court and facing the street, the home enjoys the added convenience of parking directly in front for both owners and guests, in addition to the spacious two-car garage with epoxy floors.
