1209 Canvasback Drive

Description

Get your ducks in a row for this Canvasback home in Capital Village of Nevada’s capital, Carson City. This specimen of a house is known for its large size of 1828 square feet on a small size 0.088-acre lot and for its distinctive features of 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2-car garage, and open floor plan with high ceilings. If this looks like your next home, walks like your next home, and quacks like your next home, then just maybe submit your best offer for this Canvasback home before it flies away. The front yard xeriscape provides next to zero effort to maintain; the thirst of just several decorative bushes and flowers can be quickly quenched by automatic drip irrigation or from a nearby spigot. Touch down two vehicles on the concrete driveway and guests can pull up to any of the community parking spaces nearby. Perch on the covered porch then enter through the grand door into the entry area of the formal living room. Hang up a down jacket in the coat closet. Large windows illuminate the large living area with the day’s light and a chandelier dazzles during dusk to dawn with daylight bulbs. Pick a Pekin duck from the refrigerator of the great room’s complete kitchen. Pull paprika, pepper, and salt from the plentiful cabinets and drawers. Melt butter in the microwave. Then roast that duck in the gas oven and 4-burner range combo and, afterwards, let rest on the ample laminated countertop. Rinse pots and pans in the dual-basin sink with garbage disposal; then place in the dishwasher. Company can be kept cozy near the gas log fireplace in the carpeted family room section of the great room, and then be seated for supper in the dining area underneath a ceiling fan and next to a sliding patio door accessing the first of two uncovered patios. If there is more company present than seats at the table, pull up barstools to the breakfast bar. Come home to roost in the large bedroom of the primary suite beneath the gentle gyration of a ceiling fan. A patio door slides open to reveal a second uncovered patio. A top-down bottom-up shade over the large picture window provides privacy when splishing and splashing and taking a bubble bath with a rubber ducky in the soaking tub of the split ensuite bathroom which also features a vanity with dual sinks. On the other side behind a privacy door are the toilet and shower stall. A large walk-in closet provides sufficient space for clothes, hamper, and potentially for additional storage. Guests flying in from afar can rest their wings in either of two bedrooms and unpack suitcases into each’s reach-in closet. After that long flight, guests in those two bedrooms can freshen up down the hallway in the shared bathroom featuring a bathtub and shower combination and a vanity with a single sink. Wash canvas workwear back in the dedicated laundry room with included washer and natural gas dryer and cabinets. The double garage features an automatic garage door opener, drywalled ceiling and walls with visible stud lines marked for future cabinetry, the irrigation controller, the natural gas furnace and water heater, and a 220V outlet. An exterior entry door exits to that second of two uncovered patios and a garage entry door accesses the interior. The east patio accessible from the great room can also be accessed from the front yard via a wrought iron gate. Concrete pavers are underfoot. The second uncovered paver-clad patio wraps around the house south from the primary bedroom to west from the garage. A stucco wall partitions the property from the common area and a wrought iron fence does the same to guest parking spaces. While not in a duck club, this house instead belongs to Capital Village and abides by that subdivision’s rules in its CC&Rs. While not a game warden, the HOA charges $90 monthly and oversees neighborhood compliance to the CC&Rs while maintaining the premises including the recreational area and common areas. In the evenings, a security gate seals off the private roads that have a maintenance agreement, including snow removal, from the rest of Southeast Central Carson City. Education facilities are nearby at Fremont Elementary School (˜0.5 mi), Carson Middle School (˜2.4 mi), and Carson High School (˜1.4 mi); emergency services are close by at Carson City Sheriff’s Office (˜1.5 mi), Carson City Fire Department (˜1.4 mi), and Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center (˜6.1 mi); and shopping plazas are proximate at Clear Creek Plaza, Carson Valley Plaza, and Costco (˜4.4 mi).
