Walk through the foyer into this immaculately turnkey 4-bedroom estate surrounded by natural light. The floor plan includes a sophisticated living room featuring dramatic wood beams and skylights complete with an oversized fireplace. Just off the living room is a romantic sitting area overlooking the courtyard. Wood beams adorn a spacious formal dining room with French doors leading to a cozy terrace overlooking the grounds. The chef-inspired kitchen boasts quartz marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, wine refrigerator, custom cabinetry with Italian hardware and a dreamy sun drenched dine-in nook. The main level also offers a guest suite with original wood paneling and full bath.

Opposite the primary is a beautifully appointed guest suite offering a private balcony and bonus room with stunning mountain views that can be used as an office or extra wardrobe. The lower level is perfect for entertaining with a built-in bar and lounge area that feels like you're at the Chateau. Walk outside to your courtyard comprised of a built-in BBQ, impressive fireplace with direct access to the main living room - perfect for dining al fresco. A fourth bedroom with a full bath and private entrance can also be used as a gym. The backyard feels like a private sanctuary with mature trees and a lush lawn, with plenty of room for a pool.
