Set on a highly-desirable, cul-de-sac street in Nellie Gail Ranch, this custom-built, fully gated estate achieves a rare blend of elegant grandeur and relaxed California living. Framed by lush landscaping, the half-acre grounds create a private backdrop for hosting and relaxed daily living. Cook at the outdoor kitchen, linger by the saltwater pool or spa, then wind down on the patio or private deck as the day cools. Inside, an ideal floor plan combines dramatic scale with thoughtfully arranged spaces. A soaring two-story family room with wet bar flows out onto the exterior, while the executive library finished in custom oak woodwork lends warmth and sophistication. The chef’s kitchen features a large center island, ample storage, and direct connection to formal dining and outdoor entertaining areas, making it a natural hub for gatherings. Five bedrooms include a main-level suite, a versatile upstairs office/bedroom with Jack-and-Jill bath to an adjoining bedroom, another ensuite with Toto washlet and generous primary suite. The primary bedroom is a private retreat with a spacious walk-in closet, custom window coverings, large walk-in closet and a marble-finished luxe bath. Artisan details are found throughout, including crown molding, custom cabinetry, and finely-styled spaces such as the powder bath and laundry room, each with onyx countertops and thoughtful finishes. Upgrades ensure your peace of mind, including Pella windows, newer HVAC systems, a full-house PEX repipe, water conditioning system, and hardwired security. Outdoor living is highlighted by a saltwater pool and spa, expansive sundeck, Fire Magic BBQ with quartzite bar, multiple patios with heaters and fans for year-round enjoyment and direct access to the horse trails. The grounds even include a gated dog run for pets and an herb garden for your green thumb.
