Welcome to this beautifully maintained Encinitas model, perfectly positioned on an oversized lakefront lot in Silverwood at Maple Ridge, within the award-winning community of Ave Maria. Offering more than 2,200 square feet of living space, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home with a versatile loft features the highly sought-after convenience of a first-floor primary suite. The light-filled, open-concept kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring quartz countertops, white shaker-style cabinetry, a breakfast nook, generous prep space, and an oversized counter with sink overlooking the living and dining areas. Large windows draw your attention to the peaceful lake views beyond. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a spacious loft that can easily serve as a second living area, home office, media room, or playroom. No carpet! Outdoor living is equally impressive, beginning with a charming screened front porch and continuing to the extended covered lanai with a permanent aluminum pan roof, providing a comfortable space to relax or entertain year-round. The fully fenced backyard and expansive side yard offer plenty of room for pets, a playset, gardening, or future outdoor enhancements while still enjoying the home's tranquil waterfront setting. Residents of Maple Ridge enjoy access to The Club at Maple Ridge, a multimillion-dollar amenity center featuring a resort-style pool, fitness center, steam room, billiards and game rooms, party room, children's play area, dog park, walking paths, and more. Ave Maria offers even more to enjoy, including a water park, tennis and pickleball courts, sports fields, playgrounds, miles of walking and biking trails, shopping, dining, a town fitness center, and year-round community events. With its oversized homesite, lake views, first-floor primary suite, flexible loft space, and extended outdoor living area, this home offers an exceptional combination of space, comfort, and the Ave Maria lifestyle.
