The large paver driveway allows for ample parking bordered by mature foliage and flowering gardens. Blooming wisteria covers the pergola adding a picturesque frame at the front facade. The freshly painted handsome double-doors open to the generous foyer adorned with blue and white ceramic tile as oak hardwood floors flow through the living spaces. Large picture windows that flood the home with natural light showcase views of surrounding hills and city lights beyond.

The formal living room sits just beyond the foyer with a wall of windows to admire the expansive vistas. The adjacent formal dining room provides ample space for hosting formal dinner parties or casual affairs. A coffered ceiling with strip lighting and built-in surround sound creates the perfect ambience.

On the right wing of the home is the great room. A vaulted ceiling and floor to ceiling windows offer views of the sculptural oak trees and city lights beyond. Sliding glass doors open to the expansive deck and outdoor space which is a great spot to enjoy a gorgeous sunset. Overlooking the great room is the large kitchen. Every home chef will enjoy the premium appliances including a Sub-Zero panel refrigerator, KitchenAid built-in oven and microwave, a Wolf 5-burner gas cooktop with Thermador exhaust, and a Bosch panel dishwasher. A skylight brings in natural light, while a prep island features a secondary sink, hot and cold filtered water dispenser and generous storage. The breakfast nook offers a cozy space for casual dining.

A well-equipped laundry room provides access to the two car garage. Cabinetry flanks the back wall which provides ample additional storage including two built-in freezer and two built-in refrigerator drawers. The attached two-car garage continues the home’s attention to detail with epoxy flooring, custom cabinetry, rafter storage, two workspaces, and both 220V and 250V power for EV charging or workshop tools.

Four bedrooms including the primary suite are thoughtfully positioned for privacy and functionality. Two guest bedrooms share the Jack-n-Jill bath and the third bedroom has easy access to the hall bath. The primary suite sits at the end of the hall. This private sanctuary enjoys large windows to enjoy the views, surround sound and a walk-in closet with built-in shelving and wardrobe. The bath features dual sinks with filtered water, a jetted tub and large walk-in shower with built-in shower system. Built-in speakers and thoughtful lighting complete the spa-like ambiance.

Two guest bedrooms share the adjoining bathroom complete with dual sinks, waterfall showerhead and multiple skylights. The third guest bedroom has easy access to the hall bath.

With comfort top of mind, automated European rolling shutters and screen systems descend at the touch of a button on the windows facing the rear for shade, privacy, and temperature control.

The natural setting of this prime location will surely impress. Oak trees dot the landscape and the gentle slope enjoys generous areas for future outdoor amenities if desired. The large deck provides ample room for relaxing and entertaining while enjoying the tree top views and expansive vistas. Enjoy morning coffee to the sound of birdsong or entertain guests.
