A 50' x 19' swimming pool with diving board is framed by a spacious two-level deck, rose garden, and a pergola crowned with fragrant wisteria. A fenced, irrigated vegetable garden invites farm-to-table living, while a custom play structure with bridge and climbing walls, citrus and oak trees, and lush plantings complete this picturesque setting. A built-in BBQ island with bar seating is positioned beside a covered portico for effortless outdoor entertaining.The main house, centered on the property, is fronted by a wide lawn and gracious covered porch. Inside, a grand foyer with a sweeping curved staircase sets the tone. Formal dining and living rooms are filled with natural light, while the chef's kitchen boasts top-of-the-line appliances including a Subzero refrigerator, wine fridge, and large prep island, along with a butler's pantry and breakfast nook that opens to a generous great room with fireplace.
