Nestled among mature trees in the prestigious Hawarden Hills neighborhood, this expansive residence offers a rare combination of privacy, character, and exceptional living space. Set on a beautifully wooded lot, the property creates a peaceful retreat while remaining conveniently close to schools, shopping, dining, and downtown Riverside. Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan provides room for everyone, featuring five spacious bedrooms, a dedicated study, multiple gathering spaces, and an abundance of natural light throughout. Formal living and dining rooms create an elegant setting for entertaining, while the generous family room serves as the heart of the home with its inviting fireplace, wet bar, and ample space for hosting family and friends. The kitchen is designed for both function and comfort, offering extensive workspace, abundant cabinetry, and a casual dining area that overlooks the surrounding greenery. A separate game room provides additional flexibility for recreation, hobbies, or multi-generational living needs. The primary suite and secondary bedrooms are generously sized, creating comfortable retreats throughout the home. Recent updates enhance the home's move-in-ready appeal while preserving its timeless charm and architectural character. A standout feature of the property is the oversized 1,032-square-foot garage, offering exceptional space for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or a workshop. Above the garage, an expansive second-level bonus area provides incredible flexibility and has previously been used as a bedroom by the most recent tenant. Whether envisioned as a home gym, game room, playroom, art studio, office, additional storage, or future guest space, this bonus area presents endless possibilities for the next owner.
