In true Cliff May style, you're greeted by a custom wood privacy wall and low maintenance landscaping paired evenly with the detached two car garage. Once you make your way inside, it's hard not to admire the newly constructed, custom heated pool and thoughtfully designed sitting deck which surrounds the in ground gas powered fire pit. After you've had a moment to take in those first few steps, you'll make your way into the second yard space that's perfectly sheltered behind your two car garage with permitted ADU plans already in hand. Walking into the main living space, it's hard to not let your eye follow the handcrafted meticulous birch cabinetry and soft flowing finishes that exude sophistication and simplicity. With the original living room's mistlite glass panels still intact, three well placed skylights and every fixture tailored to the home's original era, even the faintest of mid-century enthusiasts can appreciate the feeling that this home brings. While following the polished concrete flooring into each room, you'll be sure to notice the skylights in both bathrooms which make the actual mid century lighting an option and not a necessity. The primary en suite has not only been recently reimagined, but also carries the home's pallet seamlessly as well. With every Rancho comes the question of storage and in this case the 120 square foot, recently built storage shed lightens the load that neighbors in this community know all too well. With a newly replaced furnace, central AC, a water softener and additional water filtration system and every inch of this home meticulously maintained, you can easily tell that the owners of 3008 Karen have been conscious and loving stewards of such a special Cliff May Rancho.
