Description

Set on an expansive 30,000+ square foot lot in the Arcadia Unified School District, this sophisticated south-facing home offers the perfect blend of tranquility and fine craftsmanship, with elegant living spaces designed for both entertaining and everyday living. Beyond the welcoming formal entry, the home unfolds with an easy, gracious flow. The well-appointed living room, anchored by a fireplace and framed by large windows, invites lingering conversation. An adjacent dining room, served by a butler's pantry, is ready for holiday dinners and easy weekend gatherings alike. The gourmet kitchen, thoughtfully designed by the architect owner, is as beautiful as it is functional, outfitted with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking cooktop and double ovens, a Bosch dishwasher, and custom hand-painted Italian tile. Enjoy morning coffee at the center island or settle into the window-lined breakfast nook and its built-in banquette. The spacious, sun-filled, Cape Cod-inspired family room is highlighted by a dramatic wall of windows and French doors that open wide to the serene backyard for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The first-floor primary suite features a private dressing area and opens through its own French doors to the lush grounds and a pool that beckons for an early-morning swim. A generous en-suite bedroom and a dedicated office complete the main level, while two oversized bedrooms and a full bath upstairs provide flexibility for guests, a home gym, or studio. The sprawling rear yard is a tranquil retreat. Water lilies drift across the raised koi pond, a shimmering saltwater pool is ringed by a stone patio in natural hues, and greenery, flowering bushes, and fruit trees abound. Meditate in the Buddha garden, wander past the fern garden, or simply relax poolside. Ideally located close to shopping and dining, this remarkable property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy resort-style living in one of Arcadia's most desirable neighborhoods.
