About This Home

As of August 2021

Discover the Best of the Best in this fantastic Claremont Crest Akins home nestled in the hills of Turtle Rock. Situated in an unrivaled location with no homes below it, you’ll experience dramatic daytime and nighttime views throughout the year and ever changing hues from spectacular sunsets from just about every room. With over $300,000 of impeccably remodeled interior, this home is perfect for those who appreciate timeless quality finishes and a home streaming with brilliant natural light. The moment you drive into the neighborhood, you’ll notice low density living with single-loaded streets and lots of open space. The home is perched at the end of a private cul-de-sac affording fabulous ocean breezes and views of the Pacific Ocean to Palos Verdes peninsula and downtown LA. You'll also have a front row seat to a blanket of city lights, the nightly fireworks at Disneyland and stunning seasonal snow capped mountains. A private, professionally landscaped entry courtyard welcoming guests is complimented by a custom water fountain and a charming Dutch front door. The moment you step inside, you'll notice soaring ceilings and stylish architectural elements enhanced by beautiful custom finishes. The traditional floor plan offers spaciousness in every room and an exceptional added office with all one needs to work from home. In addition, there are 3 bedroom suites (one of which is on the main level), a formal powder room, two fireplaces, a large laundry room, mini wine closet and an oversized storage closet perfect for holiday decorations, luggage and more. Even the garage has been finished to perfection with epoxy flooring, abundant storage cabinetry and attic space with pull-down ladder access. No expense was spared in the choice of finishes in this home which include hand crafted custom cabinetry, deluxe KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, extensive use of honed Crema Marfil marble in all bathrooms, honed black absolute granite counters, top-of-the-line California Faucet plumbing fixtures, Toto toilets, Custom Closet organizers and Anderson Virginia Vintage hand-scraped wood flooring – even the angle stops are commercial grade! Experience the Turtle Rock lifestyle with loads of tranquil open space, hiking and biking trails, award winning schools and no Mello Roos. It’s truly a must see!!
