Sited atop a gentle knoll, this immaculate home immediately catches your eye. Stone pavers adorn the drive and paths at the front of the home. The gracious entry also has a stone patio with seating to enjoy the rolling hillsides opposite the home. The wide plank mahogany floors adorn all the main living rooms and 3 of 4 bedrooms. Vaulted wood ceilings highlight living and dining/great rooms. There is even a bonus media room off the living room. Dining & living areas both open onto the stone terrace, which is ideal for outdoor entertaining. An updated kitchen features newer stainless appliances. A bonus loft room off the laundry & 3rd bath overlooks the 3-car garage. Up a few stairs over the rest of the garage is an office area. On the garage level, there is another bedroom, bath, and living area. This home is ideal for those seeking au pair quarters, related living or separate guest accommodations. The home is located within a gated community just a few minutes from Monterey.
