Experience beautiful city light views and sophisticated living with this meticulously designed home that functions as a single-story home. This thoughtful layout enjoys high-performance systems and quality craftsmanship. Conveniently located between downtown Los Gatos and Saratoga, this hillside property is both a serene retreat and just minutes to shopping and dining. The large paver driveway allows for ample parking, bordered by mature foliage and flowering gardens. Blooming wisteria covers the pergola, adding a picturesque frame to the front facade. The freshly painted handsome double doors open to the generous foyer adorned with blue and white ceramic tile, as oak hardwood floors flow through the living spaces. Large picture windows that flood the home with natural light showcase views of surrounding hills and city lights beyond. The formal living room sits just beyond the foyer with a wall of windows to admire the expansive vistas. The adjacent formal dining room provides ample space for hosting. A coffered ceiling with strip lighting and built-in surround sound creates the perfect ambience. On the right wing of the home is the great room. A vaulted ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of the sculptural oak trees and city lights beyond. Sliding glass doors open to the expansive deck and outdoor space, which is a great spot to enjoy a gorgeous sunset. Overlooking the great room is the large kitchen. Every home chef will enjoy the premium appliances including a Sub-Zero panel refrigerator, KitchenAid built-in oven and microwave, a Wolf five-burner gas cooktop with Thermador exhaust, and a Bosch panel dishwasher. A skylight brings in natural light, while a prep island features a secondary sink, hot and cold filtered water dispenser, and generous storage. The breakfast nook offers a cozy space for casual dining. Four bedrooms, including the primary suite, are thoughtfully positioned for privacy and functionality. Two guest bedrooms share the Jack-n-Jill bath, and the third bedroom has easy access to the hall bath. The primary suite sits at the end of the hall. This private sanctuary enjoys large windows to enjoy the views, surround sound, and a walk-in closet with built-in shelving and wardrobe. The bath features dual sinks with filtered water, a jetted tub, and a large walk-in shower with a built-in shower system. Built-in speakers and thoughtful lighting complete the spa-like ambiance. Two guest bedrooms share the adjoining bathroom complete with dual sinks, a waterfall showerhead, and multiple skylights. The third guest bedroom has easy access to the hall bath. On the lower level is the media room outfitted with a premium screen, wired and ready for a projector, four large speakers, soundproofing, blackout shades, LED lighting, and a separate equipment closet. The adjacent bonus room is an ideal, flexible space for a gym or office. The downstairs full bathroom includes a separate closet currently used as a wine closet. With comfort top of mind, automated European rolling shutters and screen systems descend at the touch of a button on the windows facing the rear for shade, privacy, and temperature control. The natural setting of this prime location will surely impress. Oak trees dot the landscape, and the gentle slope enjoys generous areas for future outdoor amenities if desired. The large deck provides ample room for relaxing and entertaining while enjoying the tree-top views and expansive vistas. Enjoy morning coffee to the sound of birdsong or entertain guests. A set of stairs provides access to the lower patio and level open space, which would be a perfect spot for a bocce ball court or lawn area. A gated rose garden and a greenhouse with four irrigated raised planter beds offer opportunities for gardening year-round.
