Live your best life at this extraordinary and rare single-story custom home in Ladera Ranch’s guard-gated Covenant Hills. Backing to open space on a quiet cul-de-sac with a landscaped island, the luxurious residence was built in 2018 and showcases an exterior influenced by classic French chateaus. Custom hardscaping, lifelike turf, a paver-finished driveway and an inviting entry courtyard elevate curb appeal. A massive homesite, which spans nearly 14,505 sq ft, reveals a private and serene backyard with easterly countryside views, a large pool with Baja shelf, a bubbling spa, and a gorgeous approximately 700 sq ft loggia with built-in BBQ, fireplace, wood ceiling and elegant lighting. Equally impressive, the interior hosts a rotunda foyer with inlaid floor, and a grand formal dining room with 13' high beamed ceiling, built-in cabinetry, potential wine storage, two sets of French doors leading to a side patio, a chandelier, and a linear fireplace shared with a great room on other side of a brick accent wall. Opening to the loggia via a 20' slideaway wall of glass doors, the great room flows directly to a magnificent chef’s kitchen that features an island, quartz countertops, full tile backsplash, Shaker cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry, and top-of-the-line appliances including a six-burner Wolf range with custom stainless steel hood, a built-in cabinet-matched Sub-Zero refrigerator, and two cabinet-matched Asko dishwashers. Approximately 3,613 sq ft, the sophisticated estate presents four bedrooms and three- and one-half baths, including two secondary ensuite bedrooms with walk-in closets and a casual living room, and a fourth bedroom that makes a great home office. A vaulted open-beam ceiling crowns the private primary suite, where owners will enjoy access to two patios, including one with a fireplace, a generous walk-in closet with custom built-ins, and a spa-caliber bath with freestanding tub, large walk-in shower, and separate vanities. The finest finishes and fixtures are on display throughout, including hardwood flooring, custom ceiling treatments, designer paint and stylish lighting. One hallway hosts a high ceiling with dormer windows, and an owned solar power system, tankless water heater, PEX piping, split three-car garage, outdoor infrared sauna, and a custom security system with storm-style lock-down window covers are featured. Covenant Hills is home to a private clubhouse, and trails, parks and outstanding schools are all close by.
