It's hard to believe that this stunning La Canada Flintridge estate set in its own private tranquil world is less than 30 minutes from the studios, West Side, and DTLA. Designed by Jay Johnson and built in 1996, the thoughtful floor plan pays attention to how we live, how we work, and how we entertain. Every room is a beautiful space, with serene views and easy indoor-outdoor flow throughout. The two-story foyer opens to the beautiful living room and formal dining room. Adjacent Butler's pantry/bar flows into the stunning kitchen, breakfast room, and family room. Wide French doors in each of these rooms overlook and open out to outdoor kitchen, covered patio, pool, and expansive grounds. The spacious first floor primary bedroom suite features an adjacent sitting room with fireplace, French doors out to private patio, and spacious full bath plus two huge walk-in closets. A second bedroom suite located on the first floor is currently used as an exercise room and has two closets and en suite full bath. The inviting library has walls of built-in bookcases, stone fireplace with hearth, and views of the front yard. The adjacent real working office has a double desk, tremendous storage with built-in open bookcases, closed door cupboards, and file drawer storage. The huge laundry room and two powder baths complete the first floor. Elegant front and back staircases lead to the Second Floor. Four bedroom suites are located off the wide center hall and all have en suite bathrooms and views. Cozy upstairs office/craft room is perfectly located. Unbelievable media lounge and adjacent bonus playroom, both with built-in storage, provide amazing entertaining opportunities for two age groups, two activities, or just a crowd. There is tremendous storage throughout the entire second floor...built-in, walk in, and under eave. The 58,261 sq ft lot is private and absolutely magical with lush mature trees and plantings throughout. Broad covered patios are enjoyed across the back of the house. Outdoor kitchen overlooks the saltwater Pebble-Tec pool, spa, and gorgeous grassy area with magnolia and other mature trees. Pickleball/half-court basketball court is only steps away and adjacent to raised beds for vegetables. Paths lead through an oasis of mature trees, camellias, azaleas and ferns...Descanso Gardens in your own backyard. Truly, a one-of-a-kind home and property.
