Gated access and impressive mature trees offer privacy and serenity. Enter a circular driveway surrounded by lush gardens and fountain as you pass through a lower level patio and expansive covered front porch. The property has been tastefully renovated and remodeled and exudes class and sophistication with tons of natural light and gorgeous hardwood floors throughout. A formal entry leads into the huge living room with cathedral style ceilings, floor to ceiling windows, two sets of french doors to the front porch, a rotating ceiling fan and Spanish tile fireplace. The formal dining room is centrally located and offers extra cabinetry and a buffet perfect for hosting dinner parties. An archway in the living room peek-a-boos into the gourmet kitchen fit for a king. Custom soft closing wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, gorgeous tile, top of the line appliances, farm sink, a door to the side driveway, and laundry closet. Beyond the kitchen is the first guest bedroom ideal for the in-laws with en suite bath with tub and shower. Off the dining room is the family room perfect for movie/game night with French doors that lead out to the back patio for al fresco dining under the stars. Off the foyer is a lovely powder room with skylight and a the second guest bedroom/office with lots if storage. The primary suite offers seclusion, a dedicated vanity area with lighted mirror and seating, tons of closet space, cathedral style windows with views of the gardens and fountain, gorgeous wallpaper and an en suite bath with large shower, double vanity, soaking tub, and hand painted Spanish tile. The backyard boasts the upper patio for dining and lounging, a lower level grass area and a side yard that is perfect for the kids to play safely. The partially finished two-car garage with French doors is begging for an ADU conversion considering there is parking for 8 cars between both driveways!
