Montecito meets Sherman Oaks in this hilltop hideaway with an open floor plan and treetop/mountain views. Perched on its own private gated knoll, the home is introduced by a welcoming Ipe wood front veranda overlooking resplendent flowering gardens and verdant views, yet less than 2 blocks south of Ventura Blvd with its designer shops and gourmet restaurants. This magical retreat offers a dual living room with a library/sitting room anchored by a fireplace and a separate lounge area featuring a bay window and wood-beamed ceilings. The expansive chef's kitchen with a soapstone center island and countertops has a restored vintage Wedgewood stove and ovens. The adjacent family room opens to a spacious formal dining room and an office nook. This main level offers a downstairs junior primary suite with a walk-in closet, as well as another guest suite. French doors open to a private outdoor living dining area boasting both an outdoor fireplace and newly BBQ center, with warmer and stove, overlooking the sparkling freeform pool/spa surrounded by privacy hedges. Upstairs is an additional guest bedroom and a 3-room primary suite offering a sitting area, a bedroom area with a viewing balcony, a braided marble-floored bath with dual white marble vanities, a spa tub, and a separate oversized shower. An additional 2 closets plus a dedicated home office with soaring ceilings throughout make this home truly a retreat from the City, yet minutes from all. Roof was redone in 2025. This is the anti-New Construction home that delivers you from the monotony of the expected into the arms of the truly unexpected home you have been waiting for.
