This 2 bedroom 2 bath home is located on the top street of El Parque and so enjoys a larger lot than many of its neighbors as well as 3 separate outdoor terraces, off street parking and beautiful tropical landscaping. It is being sold furnished ready for a new owner but would also make a Fantastic rental property to supplement a retirement income. Properties in El Parque sell quickly and people are always on the hunt for a rental in this popular development. I’m so excited to show you this outstanding home that is currently the ONLY property available in El Parque. Gentle stair surrounded by flowering Bougainvillea hedges take us to the entry terrace. This terrace is south facing and is designed like this house to capture the gentle breezes off the lake. It features outdoor dining in these comfortable Equipale chairs but also has a sunbathing space that enjoys privacy from the street. The front door takes us into the living room with its soaring tower style roof with windows above the main floor that flood this space with light. This is the heart of Casa David with all other rooms flowing from it. It features comfortable seating, a built in tv bookcase storage wall and a large south facing window. To the left there is a dining room large enough to seat 6 and a glass sliding door that leads to the west terrace. Comfortably shaded it is a place for relaxing in privacy with a love seat and 2 padded Equipale chairs, If this was my home you would find me here with a good book most afternoons. Just steps to the south is the carport so this terrace is a convenient second entrance to the house perfect for unloading groceries The kitchen has a bright south facing window looking to the garden. It is an easy pleasant space to cook with a large 6 burner stove, double sink, spacious refrigerator, and lots of counterspace including a seating bar. I love how it is central to both the south and west terraces as well as the dining room and living room. The master bedroom suite is large enough for a king sized bed as well as a seating or desk area and I love how its south facing windows give views to the garden as well as catch lake breezes. It has a walk thru closet with a separate lock off closet if you decide to utilize the home only for part of the year and rent it the rest of the time. It has a large bathroom with walk in glass shower. The second bedroom is slightly smaller and also leads of the living room. There is an adjacent second full bath that means it can double as a dinner guest bath and house guest bath. The west terrace has a staircase that takes us up to my favorite outdoor space … A ROOF TOP MIRADOR .. that is open on all 4 sides giving views of the majestic Siera Madre mountains, the community of El Parque and the lake beyond. Flowing from this shade space is a large sun terrace over the master suite perfect for sunbathing or I would be tempted to add a private hot tub for star gazing in the evening.
