Discover a hidden gem in the gated enclave of Saverne, tucked into the scenic hills of San Elijo. This beautifully reimagined 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home—including a first floor, newly added multi-generational suite—rests on a premium corner lot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, offering unmatched privacy and elevated charm. Inside, the open-concept layout blends luxury and function. The chef’s kitchen features granite countertops, a built-in coffee station, white cabinetry, an oversized island, three ovens, a 6-burner gas range, microwave, and refrigerator—all just steps away to your serene backyard and elegant gazebo. Living spaces are enriched by travertine and luxury vinyl plank flooring, integrated surround sound, high ceiling and natural light streaming through newer dual-pane windows (installed in 2020). Upstairs, the tranquil primary suite offers a sitting area and dual walk-in closets, while three additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or office space. The main-level multi-gen suite includes its own private lounge and sliding doors—ideal for extended stays or in-law living. Step outside to your private resort-style retreat: a sparkling pool, spa, rock waterfall, and slide, enclosed by custom wrought-iron fencing. A 12' x 12' gazebo, new pavers, and multiple lounge areas complete the entertainer’s dream setting. Upgrades abound: an owned 28-panel solar system with dedicated pool solar, Pentair WIFI-enabled Screen Logic pool control, Quiet Cool whole-house fan, fresh exterior paint, low-maintenance turf and hardscaping, an epoxy-finished garage with overhead storage and 50 Amp/240V EV charger, plus an exterior storage shed for added convenience. Zoned for award-winning schools and moments from trails, parks, and San Elijo’s charming town center, this home offers the perfect balance of luxury, lifestyle, and location. A home where memories are made, laughter is shared, and every day feels like a vacation. All information deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Buyer and Buyer’s Agent to verify all details. Full list of upgrades available in the MLS.
