Ideally located on an oversized .46-acre lot in the gated community of Santa Monica, this pristine single-level home offers elegant entertaining spaces, a well-equipped chef's kitchen open to the breakfast area and family room, a luxurious primary suite and three comfortable secondary bedrooms, all on entry level. An enclosed loft works perfectly as an office or music room. The lovely back yard features a spacious covered patio with outdoor fireplace, overhead gas heaters and lighting, and an outdoor kitchen. Meandering trails wind through lush landscaping and past a small pond and fountain. The lot offers ample space to add an ADU or private pool. Best yet, the newer solar system with 23 panels and a Sonnen battery completely eliminates this homeowner's electric bills. You'll love the lifestyle in the guard-gated community of Santa Monica, adjacent to Santaluz! Residents here enjoy amenities including scenic hiking trails, a community pool, gym/fitness center, tennis courts, pickleball courts, private park with play equipment for children, half basketball court and a sand volleyball court. Golf courses, shops and restaurants are close by, and this home is a short stroll from Willow Grove Elementary School, in the award-winning Poway School District.
