Description
Every home has a story, and this one begins with privacy, space, and timeless architectural character. Set back from the street within the original, pristine Montecito community, this exceptional residence is tucked inside a small, exclusive pocket of luxury homes built in 1983--known for large lots, distinctive design, and no HOA. A front courtyard with a covered estate brick walkway leads to a grand double-door entry. Soaring cathedral-height windows fill the home with natural light and reveal sweeping views that make the outdoors part of everyday living. Nearly every window captures a scenic outlook, and all windows and sliders are upgraded to new double-pane glass, including cathedral view windows. The formal living room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling Eldorado stacked stone fireplace. The formal dining room flows seamlessly between the living room, family room, and kitchen--ideal for hosting gatherings surrounded by serene backyard views. The chef's kitchen offers storage galore with custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, high-end stainless-steel appliances, warming drawer, massive peninsula seating six, and a six-burner cooktop island. An in-kitchen dining cove is complemented by a butler's pantry with coffee station and microwave. The family room features a stacked stone fireplace, wet bar, and wine cooler. A main-floor bedroom and bath with direct outdoor access provide flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, sitting area, built-in entertainment center, refrigerator, and elevated views of the landscaped grounds. The spa-inspired bath includes a freestanding soaking tub, oversized dual-head shower, double vanity, walk-in closet, private commode, and private deck. Three additional bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings, architectural accents, custom windows, and scenic views. Outdoors, enjoy a flat, park-like oasis with mature landscaping, PebbleTec pool and spa, outdoor fireplace, fenced grounds with self-closing gates, and generous space to relax and entertain. Upgrades include a concrete and steel roof replaced five years ago, upgraded electrical panel, owned solar with 37 panels and two Tesla Powerwall batteries, new flooring, landscape lighting, water softener, EV charging, detached storage shed, and a three-car garage with additional space for a workshop or home gym. Located on a private cul-de-sac with RV parking or potential ADU options--create your Yorba Linda dream, your way.
