Detailed Introduction Of This Home
Welcome home to this custom gated country estate where classic French and Italian elegance meet California living! At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the special features begin with the uniquely designed inlaid brick acorn pattern on the driveway honoring the 3 majestic 350+ year old oak trees. The 4,921 sqft consists of 6 beds/6 baths + 1st floor kitchen, living, dining and family rooms, ensuite bedroom, ¾ bath, and 2 bonus rooms – potential office and gym. The warm and sunny French-inspired kitchen is the hub of the home as it looks out upon and offers easy access to the backyard. Meal prep and entertaining is a breeze with loads of counter space, 6-burner gas range, double ovens, walk-in pantry and huge island. Host dinners in the ample dining room complete with built-in buffet, china cabinet and wine center. The focal point of the living room is the floor to ceiling fireplace built with historic LA Simons bricks. Oversized laundry room has full size machines, sink and plenty of countertops and cabinetry. At the top of its own set of stairs, the private main ensuite has a balcony that looks out to the serene backyard, 2 large walk-in closets with custom built-ins, huge bathroom with full size washer/dryer, steam shower, jetted tub and separate toilet room with bidet. Italian tile adds to the feel of being on a European vacation. Up the second set of stairs are the 4 equal sized secondary bedrooms with 2 full bathrooms in between. This smart layout simplifies the morning rush. The ¾ plus acre lot is beautifully landscaped from the yellow roses leading to the lovely brick front porch to the traditional English four-square garden that has been showcased 3 times on the Westlake Village Garden Tour! The backyard is its own park-like paradise with 3 fountains, an expansive lush lawn, large sandy area with play structure and an adorable 2-story playhouse with lights and electricity. Great for kids, sleepovers, or even as an upscale space to pot plants. Meander along the decomposed granite paths enjoying the many tranquil vignettes to stop and enjoy the garden and abundant fruit trees. Spend hot summer days in the pool/spa, grilling at the Viking BBQ center, and entertaining guests under the shade of the gazebo! Safety is front and center with the fire-resistant concrete shake tile roof and Hardie Plank siding. 3 HVAC units, gated parking for RV/boat + 6 vehicles. All of this, with room to build an ADU!
