Some homes you walk through. This one you settle into.

You pull into the cul-de-sac and the basketball hoop tells you everything. This is a street where kids ride bikes after dinner. Where neighbors wave from driveways. Where Friday nights happen in the backyard with string lights on.

Inside, the vaulted ceilings and arched windows give every room space to breathe. The kitchen opens to the family room opens to the patio. There is no "front of the house, back of the house". Just one big rhythm your family will fall into the day you move in.

What Makes This One Different

Thoughtful updates. Real upgrades. The kind of home you grow into, not out of.

Backyard with new turf, paver patio, and fire pit
01

A Backyard Built for Living

New turf. New lights. Extended paver patio that wraps the whole back of the house. A fire pit ready for stories. Upgraded irrigation already waiting for the garden you've been picturing. This isn't a yard you'll have to fix. It's a yard you'll get to enjoy.

The Kitchen You Actually Use

Granite counters. A real island with seating. Eat-in dining bathed in natural light. Big picture windows that pull the backyard right into the room. The pantry is deep. The flow is right. It's where mornings start and dinners stretch long.

Light. Space. Vault.

Two-story ceilings. Arched picture windows. A modern matte-black chandelier hanging in the center of it all. The formal living room is the kind of space that quiets you down the moment you walk in. Tall enough to feel grand. Warm enough to feel like home.

The Flex Loft Upstairs

French doors. Closed-off privacy. Use it as a fifth bedroom. A home office. A homework room. A playroom for the kids. The footprint already has the bones. You just decide what it becomes. Wired with a central data panel in the primary closet so the internet keeps up with whatever you ask of it.

A Primary Suite That Recharges You

Separate soaking tub and walk-in shower. Double vanity. Plantation shutters that let in just the right amount of morning light. Walk-in closet that holds a season's worth of clothes without arguing with you. The end of the day has a soft landing here.

Aerial view of The Islands community in Gilbert

The Islands. Gilbert's Best-Kept Secret.

It's not just a subdivision. It's a community wrapped around lakes, walking paths, and green space. The kind of place where the playground is always packed on Saturday mornings and the lake loop is the after-dinner ritual.

Shumway Elementary is three blocks away. Chandler High is a quick drive. The community pool, fitness center, and shaded picnic ramadas are all included in the HOA. This is what a real neighborhood feels like.
