About This Home
As of June 2025Welcome to this charming residence nestled behind a white picket fence in the heart of the sought-after Valmonte neighborhood of Palos Verdes Estates. Surrounded by a lush grassy front yard and blooming rose bushes, this home exudes warmth and curb appeal from the moment you arrive. Step inside to discover dark hardwood floors that flow through the main level, creating a rich and inviting atmosphere. The living room is anchored by a sophisticated fireplace with a marble surround, framed by classic moldings, recessed lighting, and custom shutters. Just beyond, a formal dining room with an elegant chandelier offers the perfect setting for hosting dinner parties and special occasions. The bright and well-appointed kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. A cozy breakfast nook sits beside a large backyard window—ideal for morning coffee or casual meals. Adjacent, the family room showcases beamed ceilings, refined millwork, and a second fireplace. Oversized picture windows frame treetop and hillside views and lead to a covered deck, providing seamless indoor-outdoor living. On the main level, two spacious and sun-filled bedrooms share a charming hall bathroom with a separate tub and shower, neutral white tile, and timeless finishes. Upstairs, a quaint office area with wood floors and pitched ceilings offers a peaceful retreat for work or study. The adjacent upstairs bedroom is generously sized, featuring plush carpet and its private bath with designer tile and stylish fixtures. The lower level expands the home’s livability with a second family room—perfect for movie nights or entertaining—with built-in shelving, a sink, drink refrigerator, and wood-topped counter. An additional bedroom and bathroom complete this floor. Glass doors open to a large grassy backyard, and a rear gate offers direct access to a scenic walking trail. This thoughtfully designed home offers space, character, and a rare opportunity to live close to nature while enjoying the best of Valmonte living.
