Tucked away on three-quarters of an acre and surrounded by grassy lawns and mature trees, this gated craftsman hideaway offers fantastic canyon and mountain views from both inside and out. Entertain, lounge, and dine al-fresco on warm summer evenings from the wraparound deck, set at treetop level with multiple built-in sitting areas. Enter to discover warm woods that flow toward a soaring wall of glass as the home's centerpiece, formed by the dramatic A shape of the roof, with floods of knotty pine converging high overhead. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace, sliding glass doors to the outside, and an open-concept layout that transitions seamlessly to the dining room. The kitchen has a farm sink, subway tile backsplash, exposed beams, stainless-steel appliances, garden window, and breakfast bar. Ascend the stairs to a primary suite that continues the home's character-rich design, complete with large picture window framing beautiful greenery, a private balcony with fire pit above it all, and en-suite bath with rainwater shower. A creativity-inspiring loft overlooks the entertaining spaces below, perfect as an office, study, writer's haven, and more.
