## Description

### Agent Description
Back on Market! Super easy to show! This is a lovely pool home that backs to Tijeras Canyon Trail! The cul de sac location and no one behind makes it a very quiet home. Four bedrooms and two baths upstairs, with office and full bath downstairs. One large bedroom has a murphy bed for added space and flexibility. The back yard is beautiful with fenced pool and plenty of room for entertaining. The home is solar equipped with many upgrades throughout. A 3 car garage, 3 car driveway, plus ample street parking make it easy to host social events to enjoy that sparkling pool with family and friends. There is an amazingly productive Haas avocado tree in the front yard for guacamole dip to serve them! This beautiful home is walking distance to the town center, parks, schools, shopping, trails and great restaurants. Come and see it! And don't miss the 360 degree tour at the top of the listing!
