Resting on just over an acre of flat land the estate captures a harmonious connection between indoor and outdoor living. The property invites a lifestyle rooted in relaxation, entertainment, and the enjoyment of nature with its private tennis court, large pool, sauna, fruit trees, cabanas, guest house and single-story primary home. High ceilings, abundant natural light, and expansive windows frame lush garden views to create an inviting openness throughout. The 4 bed 5 bath home's design emphasizes both private and social spaces, ideal for intimate moments or grand entertaining. The expansive primary suite is its own sanctuary with private patio and en-suite bathroom which includes dual vanities, steamer shower, deep soaking tub and large bright walk-in closet. Although the home has kept the original architecture it has been tastefully updated and does not sacrifice modern amenities, including chef style kitchen with high end Viking appliances, separate full-sized freezer and refrigerator, Elkay water filtration station and smart home-controlled lighting, zoned cooling/heating, and sound throughout the property creating a balanced life, that marries sophistication with a sense of ease and comfort. Guests will be in awe of the generous saltwater heated pool and fully equipped cabanas with two additional rooms including sound Studio as well as additional storage rooms. Even the guest house has been classically preserved for a truly unique experience capturing a nostalgic feel in the fully equipped kitchen with retro refrigerator and separate bedroom, living and dining room. In your own peaceful retreat, you’ll live the quintessential California lifestyle where relaxation and luxury go hand in hand.
