Completely updated, with luxury finishes throughout, this 1940s woodland home has been stylishly remodeled to meet the needs of both a modern life, and the soul soothing comforts of a timeless home in the mountains. Step through the foyer into an open, large airy, kitchen with a cheery fireplace, and a glass accordion wall open to the spacious creekside deck. A wide island faces the view, and sleek appliances, including a wine refrigerator, let the chef in you come out to play. Sink into the cozy tv nook nearby, with a comforting wood stove to keep things warm. A loft styled living room sits beyond, with another wall of glass, gazing out past the deck to stately Redwoods, and the mountain peaks beyond. On the main level, a library or third bedroom sits in dappled sunlight. An elegantly remodeled bath sits near a bedroom, with glass doors out to its own private deck. Up the open staircase of the lofty living room, a spacious primary suite with 2 walk in closets and views of distant hills, sits on it's own level. The bathroom matches the beauty of its surroundings. Step out of the glass doors onto another private deck with views of the mountains, the gardens, and the fruit trees. A path leads to a studio, perfect as creative space, or a great workshop. Old stone steps meander past fragrantly blooming citrus trees, to a crows nest of an upper deck. Here you can watch the sun rise and set or just gaze upon the lush, private outdoor grounds. A spacious guest house, with its own yard and deck, a bathroom, and kitchenette, welcomes your family and friends. The wide main deck hosts gatherings or solitude. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee on, or unwinding in the evening, the natural surroundings provide a magical backdrop for any occasion. Situated in the tranquil community of Topanga, this home is a true sanctuary, offering a perfect blend of privacy and convenience. The coast is just a short drive away. Lower Topanga state park is just steps away. The charming shops, cafes, and boutiques of Topanga are close by. Here in the forest, your fairy tale begins.
