What makes this home different? It's the kind of floor plan you don't realize you've been looking for until you walk into it. And when you combine that with the location, this one really starts to stand apart. Right when you walk in, the home feels intentional. You have a beautiful formal dining room with a tray ceiling, plus a private den that gives you a dedicated office without sacrificing a bedroom. Then you hit the great room, and THIS is the moment. The soaring two-story ceiling immediately makes the home feel open and impressive, while the cable-rail staircase adds a modern architectural touch. But my favorite feature is the stacking glass corner wall. An entire corner of the room opens up and practically disappears, connecting the great room to the covered patio and backyard. Open those doors and you don't just have a living room anymore. You have one huge indoor/outdoor entertaining space. And in Arizona, where we get months of beautiful weather, this is exactly the kind of feature you'll actually use. The kitchen was designed to be part of it all. A huge granite island, with espresso cabinetry extending almost to the ceiling, a gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances, an enormous walk-in pantry, and a bright breakfast nook overlooking the backyard. And here's another reason this floor plan works so well: there's a complete bedroom suite downstairs. Not just a bedroom near a bathroom. This one has its own private bathroom AND walk-in closet, making it an incredible setup for guests, or multigenerational living. There's also a powder bath, dedicated laundry room, and separate mudroom/drop zone right off the garage. Upstairs, the floor plan keeps delivering. Instead of a little leftover loft space, you get a HUGE second living area surrounded by windows on three sides with views of the Superstition Mountains. Movie room, game room, flex space, you actually have enough room to make it whatever works for you. The primary suite feels like a true retreat with a tray ceiling, dual vanities, an oversized tiled shower with a rain shower head and bench, and a walk-in closet and a generously sized walk-in closet. There are Two additional large bedrooms and another full bathroom complete the upstairs. Outside, the work is already done. You have an extended patio, low-maintenance turf, mature shade trees, block-wall privacy, plus a 3-car garage, water softener, and dual-zone AC. But the LOCATION might be the cherry on top. You get the privacy of your own backyard while being close enough to actually see the community pool from your front door. And living in Cadence at Gateway means you have access to a resort-style pool with dual waterslides, lap pool, spa, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, sand volleyball, basketball, playgrounds, ramadas, and miles of trails. You're also just minutes from the 24 and Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport. This isn't just a big house. It's a house where the space actually makes sense.
