Perched at the top of the hill on 2 private acres, this extraordinary estate captures green hills and city views that feel endless from nearly every room. Designed to blend luxury with nature, this stunning 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence offers an elevated lifestyle where refined architecture meets peaceful seclusion. The home offers a spectacular chef's kitchen featuring an oversized island, generous entertaining space, and seamless flow into the main living area. Towering sliding glass doors open to create a true indoor-outdoor living experience, while the outdoor fireplace aligns perfectly with the interior fireplace view, making the exterior living space feel like a natural extension of the home. A dramatic curved wooden staircase anchors the interior with timeless elegance, while the thoughtfully designed floor plan includes a private office, dedicated movie room, and an expansive primary suite conveniently located on the main level. A separate guest suite offers exceptional comfort and privacy for visitors or multi-generational living, complete with its own living room, spacious bedroom, and luxurious bathroom featuring an oversized walk-in shower. Thoughtfully positioned under the same roof, but away from the main living spaces, it creates the perfect private retreat for guests while maintaining connection to the beauty of the estate. Outside, the resort-style negative-edge pool appears to melt into the surrounding landscape, framing breathtaking panoramic views of the valley and city skyline. The meticulously designed flower and vegetable garden creates a living work of art throughout the property, blending beauty with functionality and offering seasonal blooms, fresh harvests, and peaceful garden pathways. Native landscaping surrounds the property with vibrant natural beauty, attracting clouds of hummingbirds and butterflies throughout the seasons. Adding to the property's charm are a tranquil koi pond and a beautifully designed chicken coop that further enhance the home's connection to nature. Tucked inside a secluded and private neighborhood, this remarkable property offers the serenity of a luxury retreat while remaining just minutes from shopping, dining, and the area's top attractions.
