A dream home for many. Only one will hold the keys. Begin each morning with a refreshing drink from your wet bar in your private primary suite before stepping onto your balcony to take in panoramic lake views. Unwind in your spa inspired bathroom with nine shower heads or a relaxing jetted tub, then get ready in your custom walk-in closet. Ride the Savaria elevator or descend the grand staircase to the heart of the home, where your built in espresso machine is ready for your first cup of coffee. Savor it while watching the morning light dance across the lake, gather around the oversized island for breakfast, or enjoy family meals in the formal dining room. Here, even the simplest moments feel extraordinary. Life extends far beyond your front door. Take a morning stroll through the gated community, practice your short game on the neighborhood putting green, shoot hoops with friends, or spend the afternoon on the water. Whether you prefer boating, wakeboarding, waterskiing, kayaking, paddleboarding, jet skiing, or simply floating under the Arizona sun, this is the Valley's only community where this extraordinary waterfront lifestyle is part of everyday living. Welcome family and friends with a private downstairs ensuite, while three additional bedrooms upstairs provide comfort and privacy for everyone. A thoughtfully placed laundry chute adds everyday convenience, while every space throughout the home was designed to inspire meaningful moments and lasting memories. Perhaps that's why so many original owners have chosen to stay for decades, with children, family, and friends later moving into the neighborhood themselves. Heather Avenue is one of Gilbert's best kept secrets. Some homes are beautiful. Others transform the way you live. Homes like this rarely become available. The lifestyle cannot be replicated. The memories are yours to create.
