Situated on a quiet, tree-lined, low-traffic street South of Ventura, this idyllic location provides the best of all worlds - just minutes to the shops and restaurants of Ventura Boulevard, in the highly rated Wilbur Elementary Charter / Taft High Charter school district. This stately home features massive spaces, both indoor and outdoor. Featuring 5 generously sized bedrooms, 4 1/2 bathrooms, formal dining room, formal living room / library, and a giant rec room, there is plenty of space for family and guests. Built for indoor-outdoor entertaining, a series of french doors open from the family room and dining room to the outdoor living and dining spaces, a freeform pool, and your own private wilderness beyond. The chef's kitchen features high-end appliances, including multiple ovens. Cabinet space is abundant. The family room features a wet bar with wine refrigerator, and the first of three fireplaces. The formal living room / library includes enough bookshelf space to make the most avid reader and scholar envious, along with a fireplace to provide the perfect ambiance. Also conveniently located on the main floor is a bedroom / office suite with 3/4 bathroom, powder room, laundry room including a nearly new washer with secondary pedestal washer and dryer, and direct access to the 3 car attached garage. Upstairs, the oversized Primary Suite is an oasis of serenity, with its own private deck overlooking the pool, dual closets, fireplace, and a spa-like 5-piece bathroom with a privacy water closet. Two addtional generously sized bedrooms are joined by a full Jack-and-Jill bathroom, with a fourth bedroom adjacent across from the 4th full bathroom. Completing the upper level, with it's own balcony, is a rec room of epic proportions - perfect as a playroom, gym, yoga / dance studio, or any use your imagination can conjure. The backyard features a substantial flat patio and lawn area - perfect for sun and play in the pool. Pergolas shade the outdoor dining and living areas, complete with heat lamps and ceiling fan. Beyond the fence, explore your private wilderness up to the top of the ridgeline, where the home's solar panels are out of sight and capturing maximum light. For peace of mind and safety, a whole-house water softener and filtration system is included, as well as a top-of-the-line ADT security system.
