The...Step inside this timeless beauty on one of Oakhurst’s most beloved streets! As you enter, you’ll be greeted by tall ceilings and abundant natural light. A private bedroom with an ensuite bath on the main level is perfect for hosting guests or welcoming family. The chef’s kitchen is a dream, featuring custom cabinetry, soft-close drawers, a Wolf professional appliance package (Gas Cooktop with 4 Burners + Griddle, Double Oven), Sub-Zero refrigerator, spacious island, and a cozy breakfast nook. The butler’s pantry seamlessly connects to the formal dining room, adding ease to every hosted gathering. Flowing from the family room, the oversized screened porch invites you to relax or entertain, with stairs leading to the backyard. Upstairs, you’ll find the primary suite, along with two generously sized bedrooms — each with their own ensuite — plus a bonus room currently styled as a custom study, perfect for remote work, creative projects, or study sessions. The primary suite offers a true retreat with a spa-inspired bathroom and a custom walk-in closet. Head down to the fully finished terrace level which includes a fifth bedroom with ensuite bathroom, perfect for in-laws, as well as a professionally wired home theater, a flex space (currently used as a gym), and plenty of storage. Exit the terrace level into your covered two-car carport (with EV charger), which is accessible via a shared alley off Beaty. Built in 2016, this home is packed with thoughtful upgrades: premium stone countertops, high-end Kohler fixtures, Rejuvenation lighting, built-in Sonos surround sound with Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a Rinnai tankless water heater (installed in 2023), ASKO dishwasher (installed in 2025), spray foam insulation, energy-efficient windows, and high-efficiency HVAC systems. Best of all, you’re just blocks from Oakhurst Village, CSD schools, parks, and right in the heart of all the neighborhood fun — from Oakhurst Porchfest to the Mad Ave Derby, community spirit is right at your doorstep. This is more than a home — it’s a way of life!
