The home resides along a stretch of Rio Oro Drive experiencing a transformation through new luxury residences, with an opportunity to enjoy sophisticated lake-area living with the neighborhood's private waterfront lake access lot-giving access to its own dock/pier, picnic area, and launching your favorite water accessories. This residence showcases a refined combination of natural stone, stucco, architectural wood accents, and dramatic rooflines. Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive windows, and carefully curated finishes. The heart of the home is a spectacular chef's kitchen featuring a complete Monogram luxury appliance package, including a professional-grade 48-inch range, a 48-inch refrigerator, an oversized 11-foot island, custom cabinetry, and a separate scullery that provide an exceptional setting for entertaining. For a seamless indoor-outdoor living, there’s an impressive 20-foot sliding glass wall connecting the main living spaces to the expansive covered porch and resort-inspired backyard. Designed for entertaining and year-round enjoyment, the outdoors features include a swimming pool, generous stone terraces, and a covered outdoor kitchen and bar. The versatile main level floor plan offers a Primary Suite-perfect for a peaceful retreat and two additional bedrooms with private ensuite baths. There is also the flexibility of a sixth bedroom, including a private guest wing featuring a dedicated full bathroom, closet, and separate exterior entrance. Ideal for multigenerational living, extended guests, or a private fitness studio, this thoughtfully designed space offers exceptional flexibility and privacy.

Additional highlights include a three-car garage, generous storage, a comprehensive whole-home audio/visual system, custom architectural details, and thoughtfully inspired spaces throughout.
