Property Description

The house you have always adored has finally come to market. Introducing a truly rare and exceptional estate - An unparalleled opportunity to own this custom masterpiece designed by Mike Abraham and built by Tim Thompson. Boasting a stunning all-stone exterior and a slate roof, this estate evokes the elegance of Montecito. Its design seamlessly blends California's soft modern style with classic architectural details, creating a timeless wonder that stands as a work of art in its own right. The home is surrounded by a lush, meticulously landscaped haven and a sprawling yard, complete with a stunning pool perfectly positioned as the pinnacle of the outdoor space. Every vista is in harmony with nature. The southwestern exposure ensures optimal light throughout the day. Set on 1.27 acres and spanning 243 ft deep X 245 ft wide, the width of this lot is as rare as the home that sits on it. The home's layout seamlessly blends artistic design with practical functionality. It offers a sophisticated balance of formal and casual spaces, private wings for solitude, and open areas for family gatherings. The basement has a home theatre, a glass-enclosed workout facility, an area for sports simulation and storage galore. Each bedroom is a serene retreat, complete with its own en-suite bathroom, sitting area, desk space, and generous room to unwind. This home has had only one owner since its inception, reflecting consistent care and upkeep throughout its history. At the offered price, the cost per square foot is unmatched by any new construction available today. Coupled with the exceptional 1+ acre lot and its impressive width, this is an incredible opportunity that won't be replicated.
