Rarely, does a single-level home of this great size and scale, on such a large, usable lot on a quiet cul-de-sac become available for purchase and that is why I am thrilled to offer this truly rare opportunity. This stunning Mediterranean home was built with substance and comfort in mind. It features thick walls solid core doors, very large and impressive rooms with tall ceilings, excellent natural light and controllable, recessed lighting in nearly every room. In addition, this estate offers luxury and elegance in the form of lovely, distressed hardwood and Italian travertine floors in the public rooms and exquisite crown moldings displayed in most of the bedrooms. This home lives well too, as it has a very open, well-conceived floor plan: The formal rotunda entrance flows seamlessly into the bright, cheerful living and formal dining rooms featuring front to back fireplaces and lovely outlooks. Through two gracious hallways, the formal rooms lead to the expansive kitchen and family room, and the public rooms are flanked on both sides by the six oversized bedrooms, most of which are en-suite. The kitchen is a dream whether you are in chef-mode or, entertaining guests, as it has formidable cupboard and workspace and features: a huge center island (with breakfast bar), near-new, stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, a recessed Viking range/double oven with custom-painted backsplash (and double venting fans), a warming drawer and a sizeable walk-in pantry. The family room exudes comfort and togetherness with custom, built-in wood bookcases (with entertainment nook) and a real wet bar with lovely hardwood counter and cabinetry. It also features French doors that open onto the beautiful swimmers pool, patio and yard that leads up to a newly refinished sports court with basketball hoop and court-markings. The master bedroom features crown moldings and French doors (with plantation shutters) that also open onto the pool and patio, while the master bath is replete with raised, spa tub (with private view onto the yard, pool and property) and a truly magnificent walk-in closet with dressing table and is finished with rich wood cabinetry and much hanging space. The rest of the bedrooms are well sized and follow suit with wood floors, high ceilings and crown moldings and an office/study with built-in bookcases and a gym (or 6th BR). The pool and patio are resplendent with sunny and shaded areas and beautiful, mature specimen and fruit trees. The home also features a direct access 2-car garage and loads of attic space for possible storage or expansion. Priced for multiple interest.
