With the stunning views, expansive deck, and cozy secluded feel, this property offers both a space designed to entertain and tranquil place to call home. The custom iron gate at the entry to the courtyard is the first glimpse at the craftsmanship you’ll experience throughout. Pops of color and sounds of flowing water in the courtyard are a welcome greeting to all who make their way through to the front door. Upon entering you will begin to see the views, through the glass panel wall, which make this home so special. With the glass panel wall open, you’ll experience a seamless indoor-outdoor living space. The deck spans the width of the home and features a glass panel railing that keeps the views of the valley and ocean unobstructed. At the south end of the deck, an inset hot tub invites you to relax and enjoy the green valley view. At the north end, a pergola covered dining area framed by an updated wooden railing offers another space to entertain. With its functional gas fireplace, original built-ins, and thoughtful updates throughout, this home offers both comfort and charm. Inside, the Craftsman-style kitchen features upgraded appliances, including a Dacor range and Bosch dishwasher, complementing the home’s warm architectural details. The upstairs primary suite offers a private ensuite bath, ample closet space, and western views from the window. One of the bedrooms opens directly onto the deck through dual sliding doors, connecting to the spa and generous outdoor entertaining area. Every corner of this home was designed to celebrate its setting — where timeless character meets everyday comfort, and evening watching the sunset becomes a daily luxury.
