Welcome to Avondale Estates, where luxury living meets smart investment in this stunning 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home with a detached 2-car garage and a fully independent apartment above. From the moment you arrive, the open concept floor plan and high-end finishes set the tone: rich hardwood flooring, elegantly tiled bathrooms, and a gourmet kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a generous walk-in pantry that will delight any home chef. The living room, anchored by a fireplace and lined with built-in cabinets and shelves, flows seamlessly into the dining room and kitchen, creating the ideal space for everyday living and effortless entertaining. Step outside to a large covered porch perfect for morning coffee or evening gatherings, and come back inside through a practical mud room with ample storage. A bedroom and full bathroom on the main level offer flexibility for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the grand primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a freestanding soaking tub, a large shower with rain, handheld, and standard shower heads, a custom built-in closet, and a second closet that doubles as a sitting room or nursery. Two additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms, a built-in computer nook with desk and storage, and a laundry room with undermount sink and cabinetry round out the upper level beautifully. This home is engineered for efficiency and modern living, featuring a whole-house recirculation system for instant hot water, dual 50-gallon Rheem Marathon lifetime water heaters, a multi-split 3-zone concealed-duct super high-efficiency HVAC system, and a full irrigation system. Smart home conveniences include Wi-Fi and fingerprint-enabled exterior door locks, a Google doorbell camera, and a Wi-Fi-connected garage door opener. Connecting the main house to the detached garage is a breathtaking covered breezeway spanning approximately 600 square feet — a true outdoor sanctuary that outdoor lovers will absolutely fall in love with. Whether you are sipping your morning coffee, reading a book, or simply soaking in the fresh air, this gorgeous space invites you to slow down and enjoy the beauty around you, and it comes complete with a grand swing large enough to fit a queen size mattress, making it the ultimate spot to relax, unwind, and take in every season in style. And then there is the crown jewel of this property — a detached 2-car garage topped by a fully finished approximately 600 square foot apartment that is completely independent from the main home, with its own separate HVAC, water, sewer, and electrical connections and no shared utilities whatsoever. This self-contained unit features a full kitchen, living room, one bedroom, one full bathroom, and in-unit laundry, making it the perfect income-generating rental, a private in-law suite, or a short-term Airbnb with zero utility entanglement. This is not just a home — it is a lifestyle and an investment, all in one extraordinary Avondale Estates address
