About This Home
This immaculate single-level Cardiff home blends artisan craftsmanship with thoughtful upgrades and stylish design. Featuring an open great room concept, the layout flows seamlessly from the office nook and dining area, through the iconic kitchen to the family room, and into the yard beyond. At the heart of the home, the kitchen impresses with its dramatic 9-foot Alpinus Super Crystal granite island, beverage fridge, and solid wood cabinetry. It features an induction range and air fryer oven, a new refrigerator with a convertible third compartment, and elegant finishes throughout, including striking backsplash and black hardware. A textured wood accent wall adds warmth and character to the inviting family room, and a doggie door adds convenience and easy outdoor access for your furry family members. Step outside to your fully fenced yard with lush turf, a covered patio, and park-like views to the east. Designed for entertaining and year-round indoor-outdoor enjoyment, the backyard features a hot tub, a crystal fire pit with a dedicated gas line, a party cabana, and beautiful redwood fencing for enclosure, privacy, and aesthetic appeal. The serene primary suite features sliding doors that open to the backyard, dual mirrored closets, and a gorgeously remodeled bathroom with a walk-in shower, bifold barn doors, and stunning ceramic tile wall paneling. A truly extraordinary home! (see supplement for more!)
