Elevated mountain living awaits in this exceptional residence nestled within the prestigious, gated community of The Shores at Rainbow Lake, one of Lakeside's most sought-after neighborhoods, with a private community boat launch & access to Rainbow Lake. Set on .36 acres at the end of a long cul-de-sac, this 4-bed, 3-bath, 3,363 SqFt residence offers rare privacy, with the adjacent lot owned by the community, ensuring it will never be built on. What truly sets this home apart is not only its setting, but its design & the lifestyle it invites. Designed around connection, gathering, & outdoor living, the home welcomes you first to an expansive covered front deck, positioned along a quiet cul-de-sac, creating a natural space to relax, entertain, & connect with neighbors and friends. From here, you step directly into the heart of the home, where the Great Room makes an immediate impression with 25-ft soaring vaulted T&G ceilings, striking architectural detail, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The open-concept layout seamlessly connects the living, dining, and expansive chef's kitchen, featuring solid hickory cabinetry, extensive counter space, built-in drawer organization, RO system, prep sink, 36" induction cooktop, dual wall ovens with a concealed microwave above, and abundant storage. The range is also prepped for gas if desired. This home is built for entertaining and everyday comfort, where indoor and outdoor spaces blend effortlessly. The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat with its own covered deck, a spacious bedroom, spa-style bathroom with jetted soaking tub, and a walk-in closet. A second ensuite bedroom on the main level is ideal for guests or multigenerational living. You'll also find a large laundry room with workstation, an expansive storage room, and direct access to the dog run. Upstairs features a cozy loft, an additional ensuite bedroom, a large storage closet, and a generously sized fourth bedroom, providing flexibility and space for everyone. Thoughtfully equipped with a water softener, central vacuum, brand new Malarkey Vista roof (2025), and fresh exterior stain (2025), this home is being offered partially furnished for a seamless move-in experience. Outdoor spaces continue to impress with a private covered deck off the primary suite and a rear deck ideal for grilling. The positioning of the home offers an added sense of privacy, as the neighboring property behind features only a small, rarely used deck, with their main outdoor living oriented to the side, enhancing the feeling of seclusion. A U-shaped circular driveway, oversized 2-car garage, and multiple inviting outdoor living areas complete the property. Private. Inviting. One of a kind. This is not your typical residential layout, it's a home designed for lifestyle, connection, and making lasting memories in the heart of The Shores. *** Discover the White Mountains of Arizona where adventure, beauty, and fresh mountain air come together.
