Perfectly positioned on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood and offering sweeping views of Ruby Lake, this exceptional residence blends luxury, comfort, and thoughtful upgrades throughout. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the meticulous care and enhancements poured into this home.
