About this home

Welcome to 166 N Thistle Rd where natural sunlight bathes the living and dining rooms and the tree tops beyond bring serene views into your interior. Brand new plank flooring invites you in and meanders throughout the entire first floor. Soaring ceilings newly painted in crisp white are accented by the tall dining room windows and the peaceful views that Country Hills offers. Dramatic baseboard newly installed throughout all rooms, soft new carpeting blankets the staircase and second floor hallway and bedrooms. Snug in the heart of the home and open to the family room is the delightful kitchen with its white cabinetry with pullouts, sharp black granite counters, brand new recessed lighting, brand new microwave, large center island with shelving, plus the charming nook nestled in windows and enveloped in views of the backyard setting. The family room offers an immense fireplace and brick hearth and direct access to the backyard and greenbelt views. With brand new recessed lighting, brand new flooring and baseboard, fresh paint and easy access to the kitchen and backyard this is the place to be. Steps above is the immense master bedroom with double door entry, soaring ceilings, new carpet, paint and baseboard, a large walk in closet and on suite with soaking tub and separate shower. Three more bedrooms and another full bath complete the upstairs tour. Located in an HOA providing tennis courts, pool, spa, green belts and more. All of this, plus the very best of Brea Schools.
