Welcome friends and loved ones with a gated front patio that features custom brick decking and a bubbling fountain, and create cherished memories in an open-concept design that is almost entirely one level.

Showcasing the epitome of chic culinary style, the home’s fully appointed kitchen is characterized by a large island with seating, quartz countertops, a beamed ceiling, custom lighting, white Shaker cabinetry, a nook that opens to the backyard, and coveted Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances. Stately 13' ceilings and fold-away bifold doors enhance the open plan concept and give way to the outdoor CA room. Experience the ultimate Southern California lifestyle in a newly updated backyard with a raised spa, a pool with Baja shelf, a built-in water slide, an open-air fireplace, synthetic turf and a loggia with TV and wine refrigerator.
