Nestled against a stunning backdrop of panoramic nature scenery just steps from the Mt. Burdell Preserve, this single-level San Marin smart home offers an unparalleled blend of luxury, lifestyle, and location. Situated within a highly acclaimed, top-tier school district, it provides the ultimate neighborhood setting for long-term growth and serene residential charm. Inside, walls of natural light illuminate an upgraded open kitchen complete with a chef's stove and a professional pot filler, while the spa-like primary suite indulges with heated floors, tandem shower, and a built-in towel rack. Fully paid-off solar and a 240V EV charger offer seamless, eco-efficient modern living. Outside, the ultra-private backyard transforms into a resort-style paradise centered around sweeping open-space views. Unwind by the cozy fire table, soak in the jacuzzi, or swim in the heated pool, all supported by a solar-heated outdoor shower and an outdoor kitchen with a Premium Lion grill. This isn't just a home—it is your private everyday retreat.
