Property Description
It is rare to find a property that is situated on as quiet & scenic of a street, with views of the surrounding hillsides, on a sprawling nearly 1/3 of an acre perfectly level lot, with an interior so pristine & bespoke that Restoration Hardware might stop by to take notes. This single level spectacular find is a gem, to say the least. Beautiful landscaping greets you at the curb: lush lawn, mature redwood trees, curated greenery and an elegant mailbox. Step inside & the warm, real hardwood floors assure you that quality awaits. The kitchen is a cook's dream: with custom cabinetry, Quartz slab counters, stainless appliances including an induction stove, large sink overlooking the front yard. Separate coffee station/buffet/serving station area provides additional cabinet/countertop space, and a charming built-in breakfast nook ensures that your morning coffee session feels cozy + scenic, with views of the hummingbirds & quails in the front yard. Meander to the spacious family room and you'll be delighted by the details here: wainscoting, three picture lights for your favorite paintings/portraits + a gas fireplace. The formal dining room is the one you've been waiting on to finally start hosting: a handsome chandelier & matching sconces flank the entry to the dining room, a picture window overlooks the backyard, plenty of space even for the largest of dining tables. The bathrooms have been updated with Quartz, custom cabinets, modern tub with subway tile surround & an edgeless shower door (hall bath) + penny round tile floors, stunning vanity and stall shower in the primary bath. Primary bedroom is inviting & peaceful w/ ensuite bathroom, ceiling fan, sconces on either of the bed and a sliding door to the backyard. It's the details that make this home: custom window coverings/drapes throughout, stunning light fixtures in every room, a glowing interior paint color matches perfectly w/ the griege hardwood floors. The overall feeling is inviting, warm and welcoming. And for the garage aficionados....this one is a 10/10. Fully finished with drywall, paint + epoxied floor, it is not quite a 3 car garage, but almost. There is space for 2 cars + plenty of room for a gym setup as well. The house will definitely enamor you, but the backyard will seal the deal: Professionally landscaped w/ 2 paving stone patios, wood pergola, great lawn, mature trees, bluestone steps, a fountain, pea gravel patio perfect for a play structure or picnic benches. MUST SEE!
