The open-concept living spaces are anchored by a great room with a newly built slip stone fireplace and custom walnut display shelving, seamlessly flowing into the dining area. French doors open to a backyard oasis featuring a 40' Italian porcelain patio with a pergola, gravel fire pit terrace, al fresco dining area, and a sunken citrus gardenperfect for entertaining. The chef's kitchen boasts Columbia custom cabinetry, a waterfall-edge Pental quartz island with a breakfast bar, and top-of-the-line appliances including a 48" KitchenAid refrigerator, Bosch gas cooktop, Electrolux double ovens, and a Superior wine cabinet. There is an adjoining media room with a built-in 68" flatscreen and exterior access to a barbecue patio. The spacious primary suite enjoys head-on views of the Pacific and sparkling city lights, with direct patio access, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with a double vanity, shower, and soaking tub. There are two additional guest bedrooms with stunning mountain views, including one currently set up as an office. Additional amenities include a Sonos surround sound system, engineered French White Oak flooring, a security system with cameras, a two-car garage with epoxy flooring, and ample parking.
