Settled behind a beautiful stone wall near the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this extraordinary Ladera Ranch home reveals a host of custom upgrades & a prestigious address in guard-gated Covenant Hills. Like classic estates in Beverly Hills, a long flagstone driveway leads through a Porte Cochere to a private motorcourt, while an entry patio makes everyone who visits feel welcome. The expansive homesite continues to a private backyard that showcases a pool w/ waterfall & Baja shelf, an elevated spa, flagstone patios, a built-in BBQ, & a loggia that shares a see-through fireplace w/ a fountain-adorned patio off the motorcourt. Inside, an equally impressive selection of bespoke amenities graces a two-story floorplan of approximately 3,900 square feet. Stone accent walls are featured throughout, w/ one reaching the ceiling above a dramatic upgraded staircase, & others embellishing the formal fireplace-warmed living room. Natural light streams through bi-fold glass doors that erase the line between the backyard & the family room, which features a fireplace w/ raised hearth, and a built-in entertainment center with surround sound. The exquisitely remodeled kitchen is destined to please even the best chefs with appointments that are led by porcelain countertops, extensive white cabinetry, an island, tiled backsplash to the ceiling, a custom hood, built-in KitchenAid refrigerator and stainless steel Bosch appliances. A first floor bedroom with ensuite bathroom and powder room complete the first floor. On the second level you will find four bedrooms, each w/ an ensuite bathroom including a luxurious primary suite that pampers homeowners w/ a sitting room/office, a sunny deck w/ spiral staircase leading to the backyard & pool below, & a walk- in closet w/ built-ins. Elegance is the hallmark of the primary bath, where marble countertops shine on individual vanities, & a soaking tub & separate shower elevate daily routines. Powered by a rooftop solar system, this turnkey home is further distinguished by custom crown molding, a custom barndoor at the powder room, plantation shutters, a large laundry room w/ sink & designer floor tile, a split three-car garage, soft water system & new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. Enjoy a location that is just a short stroll from neighborhood parks, a community garden & scenic paseo walkway. Covenant Hills’ clubhouse is close by, and award-winning schools provide acclaimed educational opportunities for all grade levels. --
