The chef’s kitchen. With a spacious center island, custom backsplash, double ovens, & even a built-in home management desk, this kitchen was designed for both entertaining & everyday ease. It opens to the family room, where a cozy gas fireplace, custom built-ins, & picture windows frame the breathtaking Wine Country & Palomar Mountain views. Steps away, an elegant custom wine room with ornamental iron door, display cabinetry, & wine refrigerator sets the stage for hosting in style. Retreat to your primary suite—a serene sanctuary offering reverse sunset mountain views, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bathroom complete with dual vanities, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. A guest suite with private bath and a spacious laundry room with sink and storage add to the thoughtful layout. Step outside and let the backyard wow you. Professionally landscaped with low-maintenance beauty, the yard includes paver hardscape, a covered patio with ceiling fan, a built-in BBQ island featuring a Lion Grill, fridge, and outdoor TV. Plans for a pool, spa, and firepit are included—imagine the savings and convenience of having it all ready to go!
