For buyers looking to find a Roseville home at the right price, the time has never been better.
This week’s hot property is definitely hot – too hot to last.
Tucked away in an enclave of well-maintained new homes, 1248 Manza Circle is the pride of the neighborhood, and priced to sell.
“Two thousand square feet for $250,000 – it’s a screaming good deal,” said Ed Kittle, listing agent and owner of Results Real Estate. “There have been some homes in the neighborhood closing at a similar price that were only 1,600 square feet.
The four bedroom, three bath home built in 2007 has been maintained with a loving and fastidious touch.
“The owners spent over $12,000 just on plantation shutters,” Kittle said. “This is like buying a model home.”
The D.R. Horton-built home was clearly customized with luxury in mind.
“This home has amazing upgrades,” Kittle said. “There are plantation shutters throughout, and upgraded, thick wool carpeting. Just look at the woodwork. There are cherry cabinets through out the home.”
The contemporary ranch-style captures the upscale feel the homeowners were striving for, yet the home’s open family room and kitchen, and kid-friendly backyard offer a perfect space for young families and entertaining.
Beautiful Brazilian hardwood floors lead the way to an airy kitchen that includes cherry-wood cabinets, center island and glassy access to the outdoors.
The backyard is another area in which this home shines.
Both landscape design and covered patio are meant to allow afternoons spent entertaining, or just relaxing.
“The owners did all the landscaping,” Kittle said. They were told by the builder that this was the biggest lot in the neighborhood.”
The Y-shaped lot includes covered patio, dyed concrete, and has plenty of lush, green lawn, and room to add a pool if desired.
“This is a shady, very private backyard,” Kittle said. “As a buyer, this is the type of house I would like to buy. It’s still like brand new, but the landscaping and patio are completed for the buyer
The two-car garage home includes a water recirculation unit, which offers instant hot water.
A fireplace with travertine appearance adds drama to the family room, which is wired for surround sound, as are other rooms in the home.
The large master bath includes sunken tub, stone tile floors and a huge master closet, which are adjacent to the oversized master bedroom.
A large, upstairs laundry room with sink, work area, and cherry cabinetry is convenient to all the bedrooms, and the home has many built-in cabinets throughout.
Manza Circle is located in the much-sought-after Roseville Joint Union High School District, and is close to shopping, restaurants and more.
“For $250,000 to get a nearly brand-new house in Roseville, it’s a real steal,” Kittle said.
