A Timeless Spanish Colonial Estate in Covenant Hills. Reward your success with an extraordinary estate designed to bring generations of joy. Nestled behind the guarded gates of Covenant Hills in Ladera Ranch, 1 Overlook Drive is a masterpiece of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture, offering breathtaking hill and canyon views and grand proportions inside and out. Set on a coveted peninsula lot at the end of a cul-de-sac—with only one direct neighbor and no homes behind—this sprawling property spans nearly 16,000 square feet of meticulously maintained grounds. A gated motor court leads to dual two-car garages, while the backyard is a private oasis, perfect for relaxation and entertaining. Enjoy sun-kissed patios, an open-air fireplace, built-in BBQ with sink, and a stunning pool and spa, all framed by lush landscaping. Nearly every room in the home opens to outdoor spaces, including Juliet balconies and covered patios. Designed by Homer Oatman, this 7,400-square-foot residence boasts five bedrooms and seven baths, blending timeless craftsmanship with modern luxury. A double-height rotunda entry welcomes you to a thoughtfully curated floor plan featuring formal living and dining rooms, a wine cellar, an executive office, and a main-level guest suite. The newly remodeled kitchen is a chef’s dream, showcasing new countertops, custom white cabinetry, an oversized island with seating, a butler’s pantry, and a walk-in pantry. A six-burner Wolf range, coffered ceilings, and a seamless flow into the family room with 16-foot glass pocket doors complete this exceptional space. Throughout the home, exquisite details include triple-stacked exposed ceiling beams, hand-painted tiles from Mexico and Spain, scalloped archways, cast fireplace surrounds, and rich wood flooring. Modern upgrades include Lutron-controlled lighting, Sonos indoor/outdoor audio, an advanced security system with cameras, Life Source water filtration, and picture-framed TVs. The grandeur continues upstairs, where a vaulted-ceiling foyer leads to a view-enhanced loft and generously sized secondary suites. The primary suite is a retreat unto itself, featuring a sitting room with a dramatic fireplace, an enormous custom walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a spacious shower. Every inch of this residence has been thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained, creating a sanctuary of elegance, comfort, and enduring beauty. Welcome to a home that defines luxury.
