Located on a quiet, cul-de-sac street in highly desirable Oxbow North, the four bedroom, three-and-a-half bath home is surrounded by natural beauty yet is close to excellent schools, shopping, dining and entertainment options. Prepare to be impressed as the spectacular, ornate double-door entryway opens into a chandeliered foyer which leads to a spacious living room offering breathtaking, panoramic views of the Sandia Mountains and city skyline. A modern beamed ceiling, marble fireplace with room for a large, flat screen TV above, and plenty of shelves for your collectibles and artifacts make this a true family gathering place. Huge, sliding glass doors open to an inviting, covered outdoor living area with ceiling fans, bordered by low maintenance landscaping. It's the perfect setting to read a book, enjoy an alfresco dinner, entertain a large guest list, or just sit back and take in the view. Off the living room, the large dining area opens to the kitchen, a culinary delight featuring stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, focal-point island with sink, built-in oven and microwave, a six-burner gas range with oven, and amazing wood cabinets and drawers galore. A luxurious master retreat with floor-to-near-ceiling windows and double doors that open to the patio let in an abundance of natural light as well as the endless scenery. The master bath features hers and his vanities and a step-in, jetted tub. For work-from-home or just the need for quiet time, the spacious office/library with beautiful, built-in shelving is the perfect place to accomplish as much as you want to do or not do. Take the lighted staircase to the lower level and imagine the fun awaiting you in the enormous media room.

A bonus room that is perfect for your fitness routine or children's indoor play time and a full bath complete the lower level. Everything about this residence exudes "custom."
