525 Oak Tree Ct Simi Valley, CA 93065

This is your chance to own your own private resort behind the gates of The Oaks in Wood Ranch. This Crown Jewel features a 5-bedroom, 5-bath, 4,103-square-foot estate on a rare 29,312-square-foot lot-over two-thirds of an acre of privacy, mature landscaping, and city & mountain views. A palm-lined drive leads past lighted pillars to a fountain courtyard and an arched wrought-iron entry. Inside, a grand two-story foyer sets the tone, with a sweeping curved staircase with wrought-iron railings, a ring chandelier, and wide-plank wood-look porcelain floors. The formal living room features a fireplace and tall arched windows with custom treatments; the dining room is wrapped in windows; and the family room-anchored by an accent wood-plank wall-opens to the kitchen. The downstairs in-law suite is a true apartment of its own: a private entrance, full bath, laundry hookups, and its own separate garage-ideal for extended family, guests, or a completely private office. Then there's the kitchen, built for people who love to cook and gather: double stainless-steel sinks, a large center island, stone counters, a subway-tile backsplash, and built-in appliances including a Viking gas cooktop, double wall ovens, microwave, and a wine refrigerator, plus a walk-in pantry with custom built-ins. Upstairs, the primary suite is a retreat in every sense - a sitting room warmed by a double-sided stacked-stone fireplace, a French door opening to a private balcony. The ensuite is appointed with a spa bath with a jetted soaking tub set in a bay of shuttered windows, a glass-enclosed stone shower, dual vanities, two boutique-style closets with extensive built-ins, and a private water closet. Another bedroom upstairs features a unique design you won't find anywhere else in the house. Two generous secondary bedrooms - one with a balcony - and an upstairs laundry room complete the level. The backyard is equally exquisite, with a rock-edged pool and raised spa with waterfalls & custom lighting, a fire pit, a built-in barbecue, manicured lawn, and mature palms that create a resort-caliber backyard - and a lighted staircase climbs the hillside to a private upper viewing deck with sweeping mountain and city views, the perfect sunset perch. Minutes to the private Wood Ranch Golf Club, the Wood Ranch Trailhead, and the shops and restaurants of Wood Ranch - a rare combination of space, privacy, and resort-style living in one of Simi Valley's most desirable gated communities.
