Welcome Home to Placer Lafite in Chardonnay Hills, a distinctive luxury address inspired by the pleasure and elegance of fine wine. Surrounded by streets celebrating renowned varietals and French wine heritage, this elevated residence brings a touch of European charm to Temecula living while offering sweeping Temecula Valley views from nearly every window. Spanning approximately 3,233 square feet, this beautifully appointed home features five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a two-car tandem garage, and a 13,939-square-foot lot. The formal entry opens to spacious living and dining areas with a built-in wine refrigerator. Additional storage is tucked beneath the staircase. The chef's kitchen features a generous Corian island, mocha finish beech cabinetry, tiled backsplash, and matching GE, Samsung, and Bosch appliances. A Moen antique-bronze faucet and dark brown granite-composite sink add distinctive finishes. The breakfast nook captures spectacular views, while five stained-glass teardrop pendant lights bring warmth and character. The expansive family room is highlighted by a striking stone fireplace with raised hearth and mantel. Luxury laminate wood-plank flooring, ceiling fans, designer wood blinds, and accordion shades enhance the home. A QuietCool whole-house fan provides additional ventilation, and the approximately two-year-old tankless water heater delivers on-demand hot water. The floor plan includes a downstairs bedroom and recently remodeled full bathroom, ideal for guests or extended family. Upstairs, a versatile bonus/office area with two built-in desks provides an ideal workspace or homework station. The spacious primary suite offers panoramic views, an oversized closet, and a recently remodeled contemporary bathroom. Three additional bedrooms provide generous space for family and guests. Step outside to an entertainer's backyard featuring a covered patio, built-in natural-gas BBQ with seating, jetted Jacuzzi, and pergola with comfortable seating. The BBQ is hard-piped to the home's natural-gas supply, eliminating the need for a propane tank. Rain gutters add convenience, while the seller-owned, paid-in-full solar system may help reduce electricity costs. Located in desirable Chardonnay Hills with convenient access to freeways, shopping, dining, entertainment, medical facilities, and Temecula Wine Country. Elevated, private, view-rich, and filled with thoughtful upgrades, Placer Lafite is truly a one-of-a-kind Temecula residence.
