    COOL CALM AND CRAFTED. This Santa Barbara-style home captures your eye and soul resting peacefully on a rare expansive, double-corner lot. Offering full privacy from the street this exquisite custom home boasts indoor/outdoor living via graceful, arched doorways throughout. Truly an exquisite Kensington property, this 16-year new home boasts open concept living combined with modern luxury and amenities galore including full house solar! Kensington - 15 minutes from all the best San Diego has to offer. Amplify your life the moment you open the front door into the 25-foot gallery magnified by tall(12-foot) ceilings and anchored by graceful arches leading to the interior courtyard and beyond. The warmth of gleaming wood floors and five fireplaces bespeak the owners' paramount desire for guests and family to feel a sense of welcome upon arrival. The restraint of this architecture combined with the simple elegance of the arches is all imperative to the handling the wonderful natural light. The master retreat encompasses a full wing of the home inclusive of dual walk-around closets, a two-person office, and so much more. The expansive kitchen and great-room are designed to be the heart of the home including breathtaking coffered ceilings, stunning paned windows to the ceiling and multiple doors guiding you to the beautifully landscaped, large rear yard, and interior courtyard with a built-in grilling station featuring top-of-the-line stainless grills, sink and eating area. The 26-foot open kitchen offers designer custom cabinetry with copious storage, granite counters, and a large walk-in pantry with a second dishwasher, menu planning desk, a full butler's pantry with a warming drawer and a third sink, and additional storage leading to the formal dining room. Guiding you up to the additional bedrooms is a gorgeous rotunda encompassed by an artesian custom designed railing, stunning lights, and windows. The top-floor also presents a large view deck gazing down among palm-lined Kensington streets in this historic neighborhood. Fulfill your dreams in a private flex-space which is currently a 24x14 woodworking shop complete with a bath, wonderful storage space, and its own entrance. Add in a large three-car garage with built-in storage and epoxy floors, and you are set in your forever home! Square footage includes the attached workshop
