Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the very southwest corner of Santee, adjacent to Cowles Mountain and Mission Trails, sits the home you've been waiting for. This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath, 2,076 sq ft residence sits on an elevated, spacious .33-acre lot and reflects true pride of ownership from the family who have called it home since 2019. Upon entry, you're greeted by vaulted ceilings and an abundance of natural light flowing through dual-paned windows, with tranquil backyard views setting the tone. Gorgeous wood floors grace the first level and tastefully neutral LVP flooring completes the upstairs - installed less than two years ago. New light fixtures throughout and custom window treatments add polish while fully OWNED solar panels keep energy costs low. The sparkly clean 3-car garage offers a plethora of storage. Standout feature: a light-filled 144 sq ft solarium, the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee while enjoying the soothing sounds of the waterfall pond. Step outside into the exceptionally private backyard—a peaceful sanctuary perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining surrounded by mature greenery. All bedrooms are upstairs, including a spacious primary suite with a private balcony for quiet morning moments. Out front, enjoy sunset views from a beautifully upgraded sitting area featuring turf, hardscape, a brand-new vinyl fence, and retaining wall. Low-maintenance, highly private, move-in ready, and full of thoughtful upgrades — this is your slice of paradise in Santee. Offered at $985,000.
