Luxury Retreat with Breathtaking Views!
Welcome to an exquisite French-inspired sanctuary blending elegance, comfort, and modern convenience. Set on a rare, oversized cul-de-sac lot, this remodeled estate offers sweeping panoramic views and exceptional privacy.
A gated entry leads to a serene courtyard where natural landscaping and a fountain set a tranquil tone. Inside, French oak floors, soaring cathedral ceilings, adorned with beautifully crafted beams and walls of French doors bathe the home in uplifting natural light, creating an inviting flow that blurs the line between indoors and out.
The gourmet kitchen is a true showpiece with marble counters, custom cabinetry, an Ilve Majestic 60-inch range, built-in fridge plus fridge/freezer drawers, two dishwashers, nugget ice maker, and a large walk-in pantry. A huge center island anchors the space, open to the main living areas and adjacent bonus room.
The formal living and dining rooms share a two-sided fireplace with the inviting two-story library, all opening to the California room, pool, and peaceful courtyard.
The main-floor primary suite is a private oasis with its own upstairs retreat—ideal for a nursery, gym, or office—plus a spacious walk-in closet with island. The spa-like bath features a jetted tub, separate shower, dual toilets, and a dedicated vanity.
Upstairs are three ensuite bedrooms with cathedral ceilings and walk-in closets; one is currently a state-of-the-art theater. Additional highlights include a wine tasting room and cellar, a separate casita with sitting room, bedroom, and bath, and a downstairs ensuite with its own courtyard entrance—perfect for guests, a gym, or office. A main-floor laundry room offers abundant storage, a sink, dutch door, desk area, and second fridge.
Step outside to a true resort escape. The pool and spa sit just steps from the primary suite, surrounded by multiple fireplaces, an outdoor kitchen and bar area, pool bath with shower, and fire pit. The expansive California room sets the stage for unforgettable gatherings, all framed by sweeping, uninterrupted vistas that turn everyday moments—morning coffee to sunset wine—into something extraordinary.
