Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a newly constructed custom home without the typical years-long building process. Currently under construction and anticipated to be completed in November, this exceptional property will offer approximately 3,600 sqft in the main residence, featuring four en-suite bedrooms and a powder room, along with a nearly 800 sqft guest house complete with its own bedroom, bathroom, and full kitchen. Thoughtfully designed for modern California living, the property will feature seamless indoor-outdoor spaces, a resort-style pool and spa, outdoor kitchen, and the quality and craftsmanship expected of a custom-built home. The builder is committed to shepherding the project through completion, providing continuity and helping ensure the home remains on schedule for its anticipated delivery. Adding to its appeal, the home is at a stage where a buyer may have the opportunity to personalize select finishes, materials, and design details, creating a residence tailored to their own vision while avoiding the time, complexity, and uncertainty of starting a custom build from the ground up. Offering the best of both worlds, a custom home with the ability to make it your own, delivered in a matter of months, this is a truly rare opportunity in today's market.
