Spanning two lots, this home boasts an expansive 35’ wide x 73’ deep presence with private parking, and an unbelievable side yard with unthinkable appointments like an outdoor kitchen, hot tub, outdoor shower, and artificial turf - a low maintenance yard solution, and green year-round place to let your canine friends run free.

The kitchen meets a spacious and modern living space with a stone wall, gas fireplace, powder room, and natural light from three exposures. The primary suite boasts a private balcony overlooking the backyard, a modern walk-in closet by California Closets, and a marble bathroom with a high-pressure shower. A second bedroom and full bathroom are just down the hall. The third floor is an incredible, sun-soaked space that's perfect for an additional primary suite/third bedroom or an amazing flex space. The possibilities are endless; create an additional living space, an in-home gym, a yoga studio, or art studio. New Roof was installed in April 2024 and comes with a roof warranty. Designed with dog lovers in mind, this home features waterproof and scratch proof LVF flooring throughout, and has a built-in dog door to allow your pups to go from indoor to outdoor easily. Practicality meets convenience with gated off-street parking and an EV charging station, accessible through a remote gate opener​, with the possibility for more than one car parking.
