This freshly painted Marina Hills home has been reimagined as a Mediterranean villa where indoor and outdoor living come together as one. The driveway and exterior are graced by new pavers and outdoor lights. A wrought iron gate leads to a courtyard entry styled as a European bistro. The front doors open to reveal a living room with fireplace and soaring ceiling. Beyond French doors awaits the first of several outdoor living areas. Past the curved staircase is the kitchen with stainless steel appliances, Jenn-Air range, built-in double ovens, island with a second sink, and a walk-in pantry. The breakfast nook opens onto an outdoor dining area. The adjacent family room, which features a fireplace and wall-mounted TV with sound bar, opens to an outdoor living room under a covered trellis. Downstairs also offers a formal dining room, half bath, laundry room with sink, and doorway leading to the three-car garage with storage closets. Upstairs are four bedrooms, starting with the master suite, situated behind double doors and featuring south-facing picture windows, a bathroom with jetted tub and separate shower, his & her sinks, a potty room, and a large walk-in closet. The upstairs hallway leads to a spacious loft-office with built in bookshelves, a full bath, and three bedrooms: one a large room with double doors, another used as a guest bedroom, and another styled as an elegant office with built-in bookshelves and cabinets. New Anlin windows throughout the home provide sparkling views of the garden and hillsides beyond. The home sits near the edge of a broad canyon that’s dedicated open space, with a paved trail meandering west, parallel to Salt Creek, all the way to the beach - an ideal destination for a bike ride or morning hike. Ocean breezes flow up the canyon, swaying the property’s tall palm trees. Five upstairs ceiling fans circulate the fresh air, helping minimize use of the dual HVAC system. The house lies on a tranquil single-loaded street that ends at a cul-de-sac, making for a delightful enclave. The HOA fee allows access to an Olympic size pool, tennis and pickle ball courts, and other resort-like amenities available to residents of the exclusive Marina Hills community.
