Property Description

Stunning Spanish Contemporary residence! Situated on a 30,000 square foot parcel in an oak studded hilltop setting that enjoys peaceful views of sun-kissed hills and the Salinas River Valley, this custom-built home features over 3,000 square feet of living space with three spacious bedrooms, each with updated wood laminate flooring, and three luxuriously appointed baths. Stepping under the dramatic portico entry, with an open beam ceiling, and into this truly special property and you are surrounded with quality finishes such as Saltillo tile and solid Maple floors, casement windows, a newly painted interior, and beautiful open beamed ceilings.

An entertainer’s dream, the formal living room boasts voluminous cathedral ceilings, an expansive picture window that showcases panoramic vistas, a cozy gas fireplace, and art niches. With a wet bar and a built-in media cabinet, the adjacent dining room (optional family room) is perfectly suited for an elegant dinner party with friends. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite slab countertops and backsplash, Bosch dishwasher, KitchenAid double ovens, Viking six burner gas cooktop and hood vent, Magic Chef microwave, Sub Zero refrigerator, and a breakfast bar.

The beautiful gourmet kitchen was designed with one thing in mind, creating an amazing culinary experience, and the adjoining family room (optional formal dining room) is a comfortable space to unwind at the end of the day. A tranquil retreat, the private owner’s suite includes automatic shades, dual closets with mirrored doors and built-in organizers, and the en-suite bath has a spa-like feel with an oversized soaking tub with a marble deck, granite slab countertops, dual sinks, and a luxurious shower with a granite tile surround and a frameless glass enclosure.

Conveniently located adjacent to a guest bath with stylish granite touches, you’ll find two secondary bedrooms, including one bedroom with built-in cabinetry and an extra deep closet that can be re-imagined as an office. Completing the functional layout are four distinct outdoor seating and entertaining areas: a front patio, a main level patio/balcony with composite decking, a covered lower rear patio with Saltillo tile and a wood deck that steps down to a garden area, and a private patio off a secondary bedroom.

Additional hi-lights include a laundry room with utility sink and upper/lower cabinetry, two-car garage with an expansive workshop area, new AC condenser/coil, and a three-bay carport.
