This exceptional contemporary Mediterranean-influenced home is a pure joy. The walled, gated entry courtyard leads to an 8' tall front door, and an absolutely stunning foyer with elegant barrel ceiling. The spacious living room boasts a 12' high ceiling with white-stained beams, and a gas-fired fireplace flanked by tall sliding glass doors to the main garden. Adjacent is the generous 12' high, beamed dining area. The superb center island kitchen with bar/prep sink is a cook's delight, having double ovens, abundant handsome cabinetry, and an impressive walk-in pantry. A lovely Owner's suite also has main garden access, and features an excellent walk-in closet. Its luxurious bathroom includes a deep soaking tub, plus an oversized-shower with Euro shower fixtures and rain-shower head. Each of the three bedrooms offers exceptional privacy. One located off the foyer is currently enjoyed as an excellent office/media room and includes a gas-fired kiva fireplace. Another handsome bedroom with en-suite bath opens to the garden. The generous main outdoor area is ideal for fair weather al fresco dining and entertaining, with a deep, beamed dining portal, gorgeous flagstone terrace, and xeric landscaping on drip irrigation. The post-and-coyote fencing was custom-built to enable views of the vast common area, with native grasses and studded with trees. With the garden's private gate access, it is ideal for walking the dog or simply enjoying gorgeous morning and sunset strolls. Significant upscale features include beautiful porcelain slab flooring, Hunter Douglas window treatments throughout, and gorgeous custom drapes. The insulated three car garage is another huge plus. A truly sublime residence, not to be missed!
