About this property
Nestled in the desirable community of Sierra Madre, this expansive home sits on a lush 14,008-square-foot lot, seamlessly blending classic charm with breathtaking natural scenery. From the moment you step through the formal entry, high ceilings and rich wood flooring welcome you into a bright living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and a sweeping bay window, perfect for making holiday memories. Just beyond, the formal dining room sets the stage for family gatherings with elegant wainscoting, built-in corner cabinetry, and a wall of windows framing the greenery outside. At the heart of the home, an inviting spacious family room, with a second fireplace, flows effortlessly into the kitchen, featuring tile flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a cozy breakfast nook. The main level offers comfortable accommodations, including an ensuite guest bedroom and a rear bedroom that opens to a private balcony with serene views of the backyard. Upstairs, a separate home office under vaulted, beamed ceilings offers panoramic vistas, leading into an additional bedroom/office with its own private mountain-view balcony. Tucked away for ultimate privacy, the primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, complete with vaulted ceilings, a custom walk-in closet, and a large balcony with tranquil views of the mountains and the valley. Its en-suite bath features dual vanities, a spacious shower, and a bidet. A flexible finished bonus room with dual sliding doors offers a multitude of possibilities for a game room, gym, hobby room, media lounge, kids playroom, or creative studio. Outdoors, the private backyard feels like you are on vacation every day at your own private resort. Mature lemon and lime trees shade the grounds, while a sparkling pool and spa sit alongside a dedicated sports court with a basketball hoop and pickle-ball net for endless outdoor recreation. Complete with an electric driveway gate, dual-zone HVAC, and a detached two-car garage, this rare Sierra Madre retreat delivers space, style, and spectacular views at every turn. You are just one offer away from calling this home!
