About
Stunning gardens await as you open the gate to this one-of-a-kind property on charming, tree-lined street. A cozy seating area welcomes you beyond the professionally landscaped sidewalk median and front flower bed. A mix of drought-tolerant and ornamental plants continues to the stamped concrete and gravel driveway where two cars can park in tandem, with a modern electric vehicle charging station.
The gold façade with stylish teal accents greets you behind the small trees. The open-concept living room/dining room/kitchen form a seamless and inviting space which includes a wood-burning fireplace with a rustic mantel, bright windows, and enough room to entertain all your family and friends. The classic design includes natural oak hardwood floors, white trim and crown molding, updated with recessed lighting, throughout the whole house.
A breakfast bar separates the dining room from the kitchen which features handsome solid cherry wood, custom cabinets, gas stove, stainless steel appliances, a large pantry and low-maintenance Corian countertops. A large window above the sink offers a relaxing view of the backyard, with a door leading directly to the outdoor patio.
A functional laundry closet with a pair of stacked LG washer and dryer is located in the hallway, along with a coat closet. The front bedroom is currently set up as an office with extensive, custom built-in cabinetry, two desks and a Murphy bed to double as a guest room. The back bedroom is light and bright with views of the mature landscape. Both bedrooms include closet organizers and plantation shutters. The hallway bathroom has been updated with floor-to-ceiling tiles, a shower over tub, and a spacious countertop.
There are multiple outdoor vignettes and patios for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors while admiring the luxuriant landscaping. A few steps outside the kitchen lead to an inviting stamped concrete patio with a one-of-a-kind stacked stone serving table and eye-catching pergola for al fresco dining and entertaining. The professionally designed garden is anchored by a lush lawn and tranquil fountain, surrounded by raised vegetable beds, stacked stone walls and flag stone paths, trees for shade or fall foliage, showy flowers, fragrant herbs, citrus and strawberries, and much more. The back corner reveals a gas fire pit with retaining walls used for seating, as well as a hidden outdoor shower. Again, the garden is surreal, so you must walk it to appreciate the fine details. You might ask yourself, "Am I in Filoli's gardens?".
The detached 2-car garage is graced by a sweet climbing roses above its door. It has been finished and transformed into a flexible-use room brightened by skylights, a vaulted ceiling with beams and a whimsical chandelier, French doors, and a half bath. This space lends itself perfectly to today’s work-from-home office, gym, workshop or artist studio.
