About This Home

Bella Mar is one of the more desirable pockets of Steiner Ranch, and this home sits on a quiet street within it — a stretch that ends in a handful of houses, so the only cars on it belong to neighbors. The lot is elevated above the street with mature trees and a covered front porch. River Ridge Elementary, the community pool, playground, and basketball courts are all a short walk away. Inside is one of the neighborhood's most requested floor plans: four bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, with the primary suite on the main floor. The living room opens to the kitchen and is anchored by a fireplace. The kitchen has been steadily updated by the current owners — new cooktop and hood vent, GE oven, dishwasher, wine refrigerator, and new light fixtures over the kitchen and dining areas. A dedicated study sits off the main living space. The primary bedroom has hardwood floors and a closet custom-built by Inspired Closets to use every inch of the space, including a built-in jewelry safe. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two full baths, and a game room. One bedroom has its own private bath, a comfortable spot for guests. Hardwood flooring and carpet were replaced up here in 2021, with a designer runner on the stairs. The back porch was screened in 2021 and set up to be used, with a TV outlet, ceiling fan, and party lights. The yard was redone the same year with new fencing and landscaping, plus water pots and a fountain. The three-car garage is oversized with tall ceilings, epoxy floors, and custom built-in cabinetry that doubles as a mudroom off the entry. The laundry room was expanded with custom cabinetry as well, so storage here is genuinely solved rather than improvised. Mechanically the house is current: roof and gutters in 2024, water heaters in 2023, two Trane HVAC systems in 2021 and 2022, and an ADT system. Very few homes in this location come with this much of the deferred maintenance already handled.
