Property Description

Reimagined both inside and outside by the talented owner-designer, this residence has been transformed into a modern masterpiece. Commercial-grade windows and sliders, arranged in a Mondrian-inspired composition of varying glass sizes and shapes, enhance the home's sleek lines, natural light, and dynamic color contrasts. This to-the-studs renovation includes a 38-panel solar system with three Tesla Powerwall batteries, a massive atrium with a lighted wall fountain and firepit, and two primary suites. The main suite features dual spa-like bathrooms, two custom walk-in closets, in-room laundry, and direct access to the backyard and gym. The secondary primary suite offers luxe carpeting, a designer ensuite bath, and a private patio. The striking ultra-modern kitchen boasts an expansive island, high-end appliances, and custom cabinetry with quartz countertops. Outdoor enhancements include a motorized pergola with recessed heat lamps and a detached structure that is currently used as a private gym. An additional spacious guest suite ensures comfort for visitors and also has a stunning en-suite bathroom. With panoramic mountain views to the east and west, the home is ideally located near the renowned El Paseo Shopping District, Historic Highway 111, and prestigious golf clubs, blending high-end functionality with modern sophistication.
