Set in an established Castaic neighborhood, this spacious two-story home offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms, approximately 2,326 square feet of living space, and a backyard designed for year-round enjoyment. No Mello Roos! A landscaped approach features verdant lawn, iconic palm trees, and a walkway edged in river rocks and border plantings. A sinuous front patio, set back from the front of the house, creates a wonderful spot to relax and watch the world go by.  The entry invites you into a dramatic formal living room with soaring two-story ceilings, bathed in light from clerestory windows. A separate family room is a warm and welcoming space, centered around a stone-accented fireplace, and forms a great room with the kitchen and informal dining area while also transitioning seamlessly outside to the patio. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, adjacent breakfast nook for informal dining, and elegant, contemporary lines. A bonus space, suitable as a bedroom, home office, studio, and more, and full bathroom provide flexibility in the layout. Upstairs, a generous loft offers additional space for work, recreation, or relaxation. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with dual sinks, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Two additional good-sized bedrooms have access to a beautifully appointed, full, hall, bathroom. Thoughtful improvements include luxury vinyl flooring, recessed lighting, tinted windows, solar, and a whole-house fan. Outdoors, the recently installed patio overhang with built-in lighting and ceiling fans creates a comfortable extension of the home, complemented by a built-in four-burner grill, outdoor refrigerator, and inviting areas for dining and entertaining. The freeform saltwater pool, raised spa, decorative water features, and low-maintenance turf create a private personal oasis, perfect for entertainment or just enjoyment. With convenient access to Castaic Lake, local parks and sports facilities, nearby shopping and dining, Valencia amenities, and Interstate 5, this property offers a versatile floor plan, meaningful upgrades, and the opportunity to enjoy an indoor-outdoor lifestyle in the Santa Clarita Valley.  Don't miss out!
