The spectacular first floor of living space with its chef-worthy kitchen to the front and living/dining room to the rear with 16 feet of floor-to-ceiling glass that gives sliding access to the tranquil backyard—or should we say, open-air living room.

The masterful kitchen is framed by high ceilings and picture windows with a view of the Hills. Polished white quartz countertops offer ample workspace while the sleek floor-to-ceiling custom maple cabinets provide almost infinite storage options along with soft close mechanics. The kitchen island is topped with the finest imported Carrara marble and Chao-Cheng-designed concrete pendant lights, providing an eat-in area for bar-style seating.  State-of-the-art stainless steel appliances include a large French door refrigerator with a deep pull-out freezer, under-counter Summit wine fridge and Kitchen Aid dishwasher. The Bertazonni commercial-grade range provides multiple cook options with 5 gas burners and large oven, a sculptural stainless steel hood and locally crafted Heath ceramic-tiled backsplash complete this kitchen perfectly.  

An open foyer connects the kitchen to a small corridor with a coat closet and powder room, and an open concept living room and dining room with a fabulous Vita Copenhagen pendant light fixture over the dining area, sweeping wall of windows with sliding glass doors, joining the main living space with the backyard. Drought resistant landscaping with a drip irrigation system provides greenery that adds a layer of privacy—it is the perfect spot to grow a container garden, and for seasonal dining al fresco.      

The second floor holds all three bedrooms, including an amazing master suite, a well-appointed common bath, and a conveniently placed laundry room.  The master bedroom offers solitude, with a series of picture windows that invite natural light, overlooking lush greenery. A thoughtful design gives the room an elegant and uncluttered atmosphere, with a pocket door leading to the majestic bath. The master bath holds a generous double sink and sleek LED under-lit floating vanity with white quartz countertops. The step-in shower is spacious enough for two, behind a custom glass door and covered in pristine ceramic tiles. The master walk-in closet is grand enough for both hers and his. 

Two spacious secondary bedrooms have windows designed for maximum natural light, with large wall-to-wall closets and high ceilings. A common bath is centrally located on the second floor, appointed with a tiled shower over bathtub and a skylight. Minimal and elegant sconce lighting tops the floating vanity.  

The very top floor is a breathtaking penthouse, featuring large picture windows and a huge sliding glass door leading onto a lovely IPE wood deck.  The penthouse is a welcome space for entertaining and relaxing—spacious enough for a home theater system—the home is wired with speakers running through the penthouse down to the kitchen and living room. The penthouse is equipped with a handsome wet bar, including a glass-doored Summit fridge and built-in overhead shelves. The rooftop deck is simply extraordinary with an expansive view of the hills, generous sunlight and plenty of space for outdoor lounging, grilling and dining. It is bound to become a favorite spot for Sunday brunch, intimate dinners, holiday get-togethers, and happy hour cheer. 

Built to accommodate the latest energy efficient technology, the townhome is equipped with LEED-approved green building systems, including a 240 Volt/50 Amp outlet in the garage for easy electrical car charging. The roof is solar ready, with a junction box for panels and a conduit running down to garage. The house also includes a large operable solar-powered central skylight with rain sensor at the top of the open staircase to maximize air circulation throughout. It also features new double energy efficient double paned glass windows, environmentally friendly and sustainable insulation, an on-demand tank-less water heater and LED lighting inside and out.
