The upper level offers four spacious bedrooms, a convenient laundry room, and a luxurious primary suite retreat complete with a fireplace and spa-inspired bath featuring marble floors and exceptional finishes. The walkout lower level is equally impressive, featuring an additional bedroom and bath, a dedicated exercise area, a second kitchen, expansive storage, and a welcoming family room with fireplace—ideal for entertaining, guests, or multigenerational living. The outdoor experience is truly exceptional. Recently transformed by award-winning Yardscapes, the property showcases 15 newly planted trees, curated landscaping, architectural fencing, retaining walls, expanded natural rock pathways, and an updated irrigation system. The result is a serene, Zen-inspired setting that feels both private and restorative. A sparkling pool, stylish pool house, and beautifully designed outdoor living spaces create a true backyard resort. Completing the property is a heated three-car garage with built-in sink, generous storage, and ample room for vehicles, hobbies, and equipment. This is a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind architectural residence where luxury, privacy, and thoughtful design come together in perfect harmony.
