Property Description

Welcome to a hidden oasis in Marshall Ranch, where comfort, scale, and serenity come together on one of the neighborhood's most desirable lots. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac and backing directly to the canal, this exceptional 4,010-square-foot residence offers rare privacy, peaceful surroundings, and easy access to the walking, running, and biking path just beyond the backyard. With 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, the home is thoughtfully designed to accommodate a variety of living situations. Two spacious primary-sized suites, each with its own ensuite bath -- one upstairs and one downstairs -- provide flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or anyone who simply values abundant space and comfort. Every bedroom is generously sized, easily accommodating a king-sized bed, while an additional centrally located storage room adds even more functionality. Inside, the home feels bright, welcoming, and beautifully refreshed. Newly painted walls and ceilings in a soft, luminous "Finest Silk" create an inviting backdrop throughout, complemented by new carpeting underfoot and warm bamboo and wood flooring in select spaces. The only delightful exception is the guest bath, where charming whimsical wallpaper adds a touch of personality too special to replace. The spacious floor plan offers multiple gathering areas, including an open kitchen with a low breakfast bar, a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the backyard, and a comfortable family room designed for easy everyday living and entertaining. Additional bonus spaces both downstairs and upstairs offer endless versatility, currently serving as a piano lounge and billiards room. The upstairs loft is large enough to accommodate a pool table with ease, all while enjoying unobstructed mountain views from the north-facing windows. The upstairs primary suite is especially impressive, featuring generous proportions, bamboo flooring, and a substantial walk-in closet. Downstairs, the secluded suite offers its own inviting retreat, complete with an updated shower, grab bars, wood floors, and a large closet. Outside, the backyard is truly a crown jewel -- a private sanctuary designed to pamper and impress year-round. An elevated reversed negative edge pool, surrounded by boulders and Shellock® tiles that stay cool even in the height of Arizona summer, creates a resort-like setting unlike anything else. A stainless steel gas grill, outdoor fireplace, elegant water feature, and ample shaded areas make this an entertainer's dream, equally suited for festive gatherings, quiet winter evenings by the fire, or peaceful mornings with coffee as the sunrise fills the home with soft natural light. With no direct rear neighbors, the setting feels especially tranquil, while sunsets and the quiet beauty of the canal create a daily backdrop worth savoring. Even the practical details have been thoughtfully considered, including a freshly painted garage and fruit trees that add charm and sweetness to the property -- lemons in the front, oranges in the back. The location is equally appealing, especially if school proximity is of great importance. Marshall Ranch Elementary is within 100 yards from the front door, while Ironwood High School is approximately one mile away from the home. A wide range of shopping, dining, grocery, and everyday essentials are all conveniently nearby. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that blends size, flexibility, privacy, and lifestyle in one of Glendale's most beautifully maintained communities. Come experience this Marshall Ranch gem for yourself.
