Behind the gates of Verdera, this custom-built Santa Barbara-style home offers something increasingly difficult to find: timeless craftsmanship matched to an elevation in lifestyle. Designed for true single-level living, the expansive primary suite, guest bedroom, dedicated office, two additional full baths, and laundry are all on the main floor, leaving the upstairs as a bonus, not a necessity. Upstairs features a spacious secondary living space alongside two bedrooms and a full bath, creating an ideal retreat for guests, kids, or family. Walk into the kitchen and the intentions of this home become clear. A massive island clad in Taj Mahal quartzite anchors the space, complemented by a 48 Bertazzoni range, two Bosch dishwashers, two pantries, wine and beverage fridge, and abundant storage space. A separate, temperature controlled wine room ensures the collection is always ready. This is the kitchen where summer entertaining begins, where the cooking is as much a part of the party as the backyard waiting beyond the doors. Step outside and the entertaining story reaches its peak, with no expense spared. A lazy river-style pool flows by the hot tub area, a fire pit lounge invites long evenings, and a covered pavilion with a full outdoor kitchen and built-in grill makes al fresco hosting effortless. Backing to a greenbelt, the yard is as private as it is beautiful. This home has been maintained and improved with intention. Over $300,000 in improvements and upgrades over the last several years means the next owner steps into a home that is immaculate and asks nothing of them. Two fully finished 2-car garages and solar round out a property that has been thoughtfully prepared for the life you want to be living. Excellent access to community trails, Catta Verdera clubhouse and golf, plus local amenities and great schools. Some homes ask you to compromise. This one simply does not. Come make it yours.
