When a high-end custom builder takes on a tract home in Canyon Country, it becomes a stunning celebration of form and function, a Zen-like retreat. Step through the custom entry door and you?ll see hand-scraped maple floors, hand-textured walls, and modern design features throughout. Step down to a light-filled yoga workout room featuring a gas fireplace with reclaimed wood. Move next to the formal living and dining rooms which open to a private patio, setting the mood for entertaining guests. On your way to the kitchen, look at the stylish powder bath with a floating cabinet and custom Brazilian hardwood wall. Enter the great room and gourmet kitchen where your family and friends will gather. With an oversized island, this chef?s kitchen boasts a 36-inch 6-burner Italian range and hood, high-end stainless appliances, white matte custom cabinets, quartz countertops, dual stainless sinks, and a huge walk-in pantry. The kitchen overlooks the private Zen-like yard with bamboo, concrete pavers, a custom 11-foot-high shade structure, and above-ground spa. Repose and replenish or host gatherings under the stars. Afterwards, head upstairs (don't miss the "bucket of light") to the fully remodeled primary bedroom featuring shou-sugi-ban (Japanese burnt wood) behind a floating King bed and built-in nightstands. The spa-like expanded bathroom impresses with dual vanities, a free-standing soaking tub for two, and walk-in shower with starfire glass. There is no need for dressers; sleek built-in wardrobes offer ample drawers to complement the walk-in closet. Down the hall you?ll find a cozy loft with built-in bookshelves. Work from home in a tranquil office/optional 5th bedroom featuring an accent wall, beautiful barn door, and stunning views. Both loft and office offer built-in desks and storage cabinets. Three additional bedrooms located at the opposite end of the home have views of the hills. The expanded 3rd bath features a long vanity and a separate room for the extra deep tub-shower. This home has programmable switches, a Simplisafe alarm system, recessed and ambient lighting, solid core doors, and upgraded windows and trim. No Mello Roos taxes, and a low HOA offers front yard maintenance, multiple pools and tennis courts. 5 minutes from the freeway in a wonderful neighborhood with mature tree-lined streets, this modern retreat is a rare gem. Bel Air on a budget.
