Stepping inside, you will discover a stunning black slate fireplace paired with a bespoke African sapele wood sliding door ingeniously designed to offer both a striking visual statement and the option to separate the bedroom wing from the living space. The Chef’s kitchen is a masterpiece featuring a premium Thermador range and smart refrigerator framed by rich alder cabinetry, built in wine bar that are all centered around a dramatic single slab black onyx island. The living room opens seamlessly through glass sliding doors to a verdant backyard featuring fruit trees, lush landscaping bordering the swimming pool / jacuzzi, a built-in outdoor BBQ kitchen, extended trellis that gracefully spans the outdoor living space and a reconstructed retaining wall with burlap secures the hillside creating a private oasis. Each bedroom offers a private retreat with new windows and generous closet space, while the spa inspired baths showcase exquisite tiles, soaking tubs, trough sinks with custom designed cabinetry with Walker Zanger slabs and upscale fixtures. The primary bedroom is elevated by soaring ceilings and a spacious open layout. A tailored walk-in closet, with a defined sitting area. The ensuite bath mirrors a luxury retreat, with dual vanities, deep soaking tub and a beautifully finished stone glass enclosed shower with dual fixtures. Completing the suite is a sliding door that provides direct access to the backyard, inviting natural light and a seamless connection to the outdoors. The front of the home presents an extended driveway with ample parking, a spacious two car garage finished with epoxy floors and a dedicated pet shower. Nestled on a serene cul-de-sac that offers a sense of privacy yet just only moments away from the Boulevard. This architectural gem seamlessly blends distinctive character with refined sophistication. Experience the artistry of this exceptional home by scheduling a tour.
