OPEN HOUSE - SAT from 11-2pm. Life is good at 5491 Juniper Ct. With a perfectly laid out Ranch floor plan, it truly doesn't get any better than this. Six bedrooms plus a private office with its own closet give you room to spread out, work from home, or host family for weeks at a time. The owners have renovated nearly every inch of this home and it shows. The kitchen has been fully remodeled with an oversized island, custom cabinetry, Cambria quartz counters, and a chef-grade lineup: Dacor column fridge/freezer, Monogram oven and Advantium microwave, and a 5-burner induction cooktop. New hardwood flooring runs throughout the main level, and a full Sonos audio system wired through the entire home, inside and out, means the right song or audio of the game is always just a tap away. Then there's the backyard. The owners expanded the covered patio 3x and added folding doors straight off the main living space, a gas firepit, a hot tub, an outdoor TV, and a built-in grill & smoker. A vaulted roof with a ridge skylight, oversized fans, and 4 built-in ceiling heaters make it usable nearly 365 days a year. Sunday football and outdoor family dinners will never be the same. The basement has its own entrance from the garage, ideal for an au pair or live-in family member. You'll also find a full home theater, a glass-walled home gym with rubber flooring, and yes, a hidden closet with biometric fingerprint access for whatever you want to tuck away. Bathrooms throughout were fully remodeled with heated floors, premium tile, and backlit mirrors, including a primary suite with a Roman soaking tub that feels like a resort. Outside, the lot is huge and private, backing directly to open space with a tree swing hanging from one of the massive cottonwoods. Watch your kids play out back, then walk to Van Bibber Trailhead, soon offering trail-only access straight to North Table Mountain. Visit www.5491juniperct.com for more photos, videos & 3D Tour.
