About This Home

As of May 2016

La Cresta Living at its Best! Beautifully maintained and updated home in the prestigious and established community of Upper La Cresta. Lovely tree-lined streets and pride-of-ownership abounds in this classic location near private schools. The main house features lots of updated amenities - including remodeled kitchen featuring stainless appliances and refinished cabinets - but doesn't sacrifice any of its charm, with beautiful wood flooring throughout, built-in cabinetry, tile accented stairway and more. Plantation shutters let light in through large updated windows throughout. The backyard is a delightful retreat, with lush landscaping, waterfall pond feature and stamped concrete. Did we mention the adjoining guest house/in-law quarters with attached balcony walkway to main house, or the detached building in back that would make a great hobby room/craft room/office, or the owned solar panels that will cut your energy bills...this home has too many features to mention!
