About This Home

As of June 2021

Mediterranean custom-built home with all the bells and whistles, located on sunny 1.26 acres. Reminiscent of a Tuscan Villa, the soaring ceilings, plaster domed architectural accents and wonderful indoor/outdoor flow create a tranquil and enticing place to call home. The formal living and dining rooms both open to patios for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen features 48'' gas range, island with prep sink, custom painted tile backsplash and maple cabinets with elegant carved details. Direct access to the enormous yard from the adjacent family room. The lot is large enough for a hobby vineyard, fruit trees and plenty of exploring. Dine under the stars in the charming pergola. There are three bedrooms located together upstairs in addition to the separate guest suite and private home office. Generous three car garage, plus off-street parking
