About This Home
Gracefully situated with commanding street presence and breathtaking mountain views, this elegant Normandy French Tudor invites you in through a custom front door to an impressive oval-shaped foyer. Gleaming hardwood floors, a dramatic iron-railed staircase, and graceful archways lead seamlessly to the formal living and dining rooms, as well as a warm and inviting den. The spacious dining room, framed with crown molding and a curved bay window, welcomes lovely sunlight and picturesque views of the shaded, tree-lined front yard. The formal living room is truly stunning, with a beautiful fireplace serving as its centerpiece. An attached solarium, wrapped in walls of glass, bathes the room in natural light while offering serene garden views and access to an expansive brick patio—perfect for year-round entertaining. The cozy den includes a convenient powder room, while the chef’s kitchen features a butler’s pantry and adjoins a generous breakfast room with a built-in buffet and views of the pool. A downstairs bedroom, located off the butler’s pantry, provides a full bath—ideal for guests or extended family. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite captures sweeping mountain views, accompanied by a private bathroom with steam shower, 2 additional large bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bath, abundant closets, and excellent storage. A versatile gym or office with an en-suite 3⁄4 bath completes the upper level. Outdoors, the large rectangular pool feels private and inviting, complemented by a charming pool house (an additional 500 Square Feet not included in total) with its own kitchen and fireplace. A gated brick motor court and a 3-car garage complete this remarkable estate, offering timeless elegance and modern comfort. Updates include a new roof, HVAC, refinished hardwood floors, interior paint, & insulation in 2025. Pool plaster & tile replaced in 2024.
