Ideally situated in arguably one of the best locations in the community at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with a large prime lot and an Entertainer’s Dream backyard with spectacular views, this home has it all! Gorgeous curb appeal and lushly manicured landscaping create a welcoming first impression. Pass through the front courtyard to an impressive double door entrance into the foyer with soaring two-story open beam ceilings, custom mosaic tile details, and a gorgeous wrought iron staircase which will take your breath away. The spacious formal living area is filled with natural light and boasts a cozy sunken seating/conversation area in front of an elegant two-sided fireplace, with a full wet bar nearby. The formal dining room shares the two-sided fireplace and has direct access to the backyard patio creating a wonderful space for entertaining. The separate family room includes built-in media center/bookcases around a beautifully showcased fireplace, providing an ideal space for gathering with family and friends. The main level includes a bonus room which has oversized pocket doors that can be opened to the family room or closed to provide a private space perfect for a home office or library. The elegantly remodeled kitchen is a dream with granite countertops, custom tiled backsplash, lush cabinetry, recessed lighting, double ovens, a prized breakfast bar with pendant lighting, and a huge garden window. The expansive master suite is a peaceful retreat with high vaulted ceilings, a romantic fireplace, and a private balcony deck providing an amazing space for enjoying spectacular sunset and hills views and a glass of wine with a loved one. The master bath was exquisitely remodeled in 2016 with handsome cabinetry topped with a quartz dual vanity with updated fixtures and hardware, framed vanity mirrors, updated custom lighting, a decadent soaking tub and an oversized step in shower with custom tiled surround and frameless glass enclosure. The Entertainer’s Backyard is a private oasis entirely remodeled in 2020 with a sparkling pool and spa, lush landscaping, and a spectacular covered patio with outdoor kitchen and gathering spaces for bird watching, relaxing, and entertaining. Additional improvements include New HVAC 2017, Owned Solar System installed 2018, and whole house re-pipe in 2020.
