About This Home

A home that just feels good the moment you arrive. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, 4844 Merganser Ct offers space, privacy, and a backyard that’s truly meant to be enjoyed. The yard is generous and beautifully landscaped, with a pool and spa that invite everything from slow weekend mornings to lively gatherings. A mix of paved patio and soft lawn gives you room to spread out, while mature trees and hedges create a sense of privacy that’s hard to find. The pool is equipped with a newer heater (2023), ready year-round. It’s the kind of outdoor space you actually use. A north-facing front door and covered porch create a calm, practical entry, with room for shoes, bags, or just a quiet pause before stepping inside. The main level is set up exactly how you’d want it: living room, dining area, kitchen, and family room all connected, with a half bath for convenience. It flows easily whether you’re hosting a crowd or just moving through your day. The kitchen looks out to the backyard and pool through a perfectly placed window, and features a walk-in pantry with shelving and a large, counter-depth KitchenAid fridge that gives a subtle, professional feel. Travertine tile floors in the kitchen and family room are both elegant and incredibly durable - ideal for indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, all bedrooms and two full baths are tucked away, creating a clear separation between living and retreat. The primary suite stands out with vaulted ceilings, a generous footprint that easily accommodates a sitting area and multiple dressers, and a spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower for two, soaking tub, and dual vanity. The rest of the home features engineered wood flooring throughout (no carpet!) along with AC, a dedicated laundry room, and an attached two-car garage. Set in Pleasanton’s Birdland neighborhood, you’re close to top-rated schools, parks, and everything that makes the area so loved. Downtown Pleasanton with its charming cafés, restaurants, farmers market, and local shops, is just minutes away, along with easy access to commuting routes. A comfortable, well-located home with the kind of yard that’s hard to find… and even harder to leave.
