ABOUT THE HOME

As you arrive, the home presents itself with a beautiful flagstone perimeter wall and a lush, well-maintained front lawn accented by mature trees, landscaping, and a striking natural boulder. A flagstone walkway leads you toward the main entrance and continues along the side of the home, providing convenient access for guests, especially when entertaining.

Entering through a solid wood door framed by rustic Tuscan-style stonework, you are welcomed into a thoughtfully designed interior. Immediately to the left of the entrance is a conveniently located guest half bathroom. The living room opens up with impressive scale, showcasing 15-foot vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and travertine flooring throughout. Large bay windows draw in natural light and offer views toward the side yard, while clerestory windows above create a sense of openness by visually connecting to the upper level.

Flowing from the living room is a spacious dining area that offers incredible versatility. With its vaulted ceilings and generous proportions, it can easily function as a formal dining room, a secondary living area, or even a game room. Sliding glass doors provide direct access to the side yard, while additional windows frame views of the backyard.

The kitchen is both functional and refined, featuring granite countertops, high-end stainless steel appliances including a Thermador stove, a breakfast bar, and travertine flooring. It connects seamlessly to a utility room with a pantry and provides access to a charming back patio courtyard. This courtyard creates a cozy outdoor dining option and connects directly to the garage.

The private wing of the ground level includes two bedrooms. The main bedroom enjoys peaceful backyard views along with an en suite bathroom finished in travertine and granite. The second bedroom features sliding doors that open directly to the backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.

Stepping outside, the property truly shines as an entertainer’s retreat. There is a large palapa-covered outdoor kitchen and bar, ideal for hosting gatherings, alongside a shaded outdoor spa. A flagstone fire pit offers a relaxing setting with partial ocean views, while the expansive backyard provides grassy areas, mature trees, and a spacious terrace perfect for outdoor living.

The staircase leading to the second level is conveniently located between the kitchen and the bedroom hallway.

Second Level – Elevated Comfort with Coastal Views
Moving upstairs, the atmosphere becomes more relaxed and private. The centerpiece of this level is a spacious covered terrace that resembles a traditional Tuscan loggia. With tiled flooring, elegant columns, and a vaulted ceiling, it provides a shaded outdoor living area that remains open to the ocean-facing side. From here, you can enjoy partial ocean views along with views of the backyard and side yard, making it an ideal space for more intimate gatherings or quiet relaxation.

This level also includes the third and fourth bedrooms, both designed with comfort in mind. Each room features slate flooring, ceiling fans, generous closet space, and partial ocean views. They are connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, adding functionality and privacy for family or guests.

From the staircase landing area, there is access to a roof section above the kitchen, where a steel staircase leads upward to the home’s highest level.

Rooftop Terrace – Panoramic Views in Every Direction
At the top of the home, the rooftop terrace offers one of its most impressive features. This expansive space delivers sweeping 360-degree views, capturing both the ocean and the surrounding mountains. With protective guard rails along the perimeter, it creates a safe and open environment to unwind, entertain, or simply enjoy the coastal landscape from above.

Completing the home is a two-car covered garage with electric doors, storage racks, and a dedicated laundry area, along with the home’s heating system. The garage connects directly to the back patio for added convenience. With additional driveway and curbside space, the property can accommodate up to eight vehicles, making it ideal for hosting.

Altogether, this home offers a harmonious blend of Tuscan charm, modern comfort, and ocean-view living, thoughtfully arranged across each level to create a welcoming and versatile coastal retreat.
