This house is stunning at twilight - and any time of day! This home's natural light does not disappoint - from the main entry's oversized pivot door to the large windows and glass doors found throughout. Comfortably elegant neutrals found in the home's interior design - from the smoky-brown tones in the custom cabinetry to the white oak wood floor. A sleek kitchen design conceals a generous workspace/pantry. This kitchen checks all the boxes: a large island with seating, a gas range for those who love to cook and that large hidden pantry/workspace is an incredibly efficient and thoughtful space. Pantry with fridge, sink and dishwater - plus plenty of open shelf and closed storage. A dining space south of the kitchen overlooks the sparkling new pool. The proximity of the living area means entertaining with ease. Plaster, a recessed lighting detail in the ceiling and huge glass doors make for an elegant aesthetic. A junior master or guest suite on the main level, with laundry plumbed for the walk in closet. Guest suite (main level) bathroom. At the front of the home and adjacent to the powder bath, this room features a separate entry. It also has a closet and could be a great home office space, or even a 6th bedroom, if desired. Don't forget to check out the massive storage area under the stairs - which is just off to the right of the frame. The floor plan and layout of this home make it a winner because of the versatility of each space. Up the stairs on the second level, a wall wash skylight highlights the plaster treatment along the main wall. Built-in bookshelves create a cozy nook, which also acts as a decompression zone between the stairs, secondary bedrooms and owner's suite. This room offers WOW factor. This room has a closet and access to a bathroom, so it could be a 5th bedroom. Other ideas: pilates room, office, flex room... the possibilities are endless. In addition to the ability to make this a bedroom or flex room, this space also has access to the front terrace (to the left). Access to the front terrace to savor one of the best views of Camelback Mountain. The owner's suite also features a beverage fridge for a coffee bar and storage for a "midnight kitchen." (aka: this is great storage for snacks or water bottles) Imagine waking up to the view of Camelback Mountain - every day. Locals say even after decades of living here, this sight never grows old. View from the front terrace, off the owner's suite. Double vanity, a separate tub and shower as well as a massive closet off the owner's suite. Owner's bath Ensuite bedroom 4, with access to rear patio Second Level Bath 3 Ensuite, with a walk-in closet and rear patio access This bathroom is ensuite with hall access for kids or guests upstairs. Shared by bedrooms 3 and 4 on the second level. The sunset view from here is magical. Host a party, watch a game, or just soak up the sun on a quiet afternoon in your private backyard. Designed for kids, pets, or simply the peace of mind that comes knowing you don't have a lot of upkeep to the yard - great for those who plan to split their time during the year. Sunsets at Montecito Welcome home!
