Cooking will be a joy in this gourmet kitchen, fully remodeled with premium luxury appliances, and African mahogany custom cabinetry with exquisite granite countertops. For larger gatherings, the tropical oasis backyard awaits. A pristine pool with its own solar system, swim-up bar/seating area with adjoining hot tub and a fabulous custom 2 story waterfall flowing over the beautiful stone walls. You and your guests will feel like you’re in Hawaii! The elegant game room with a seamless entrance thru Weiland custom pocket doors open up to the comfortable seating area at the barbecue to enjoy the wonderful southern California evenings - It Is A MUST SEE! There is a full bedroom currently configured as an office/study and full bathroom on the main floor. The main floor of this beautiful home with an exquisite game room has been thoughtfully remodeled. The home features 10.5 kW of owned solar installed in 2020 with net metering, the annual true up average less than $1000. The backyard is completely plumbed for natural gas with multiple outlets in various locations ideal for Patio Heaters. There is even an ocean view from the upper portion of the expensive rear lot just waiting for your inspiration.
