Property Description

Perched atop nearly six private acres in the prestigious hills of La Cresta, this extraordinary estate captures some of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the region. Sweeping vistas of the valley, city lights, and surrounding mountains create a setting that feels as though you are truly on top of the world. Recently enhanced with fresh interior and exterior paint, beautifully refurbished hardwood flooring, upgraded bathrooms, new carpeting, designer exterior lighting, and a newly installed automatic entry gate, the home seamlessly blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. A dramatic wall of windows in the grand living room serves as the focal point of the residence, framing spectacular views from nearly every angle and filling the home with natural light. Rich hardwood floors, custom European-inspired moldings, expansive formal living and dining spaces, and a thoughtfully designed floor plan create an atmosphere of sophistication throughout. Although officially a two-story residence, the home lives primarily as a single-story, with the main living areas, luxurious primary suite, and guest accommodations conveniently located on the main level. The split-wing design provides exceptional privacy, while additional bedrooms and living space on the lower level offer flexibility for extended family, guests, or multigenerational living. A spacious loft adds yet another versatile gathering space. Step outside to expansive wraparound decking designed to showcase the property's truly remarkable setting. Whether enjoying morning coffee above the clouds, entertaining guests against a backdrop of endless sunsets, or taking in the twinkling city lights below, every moment here feels extraordinary. The fully fenced acreage offers endless possibilities, including room for a vineyard, olive grove, avocado orchard, equestrian facilities, additional structures, or simply enjoying the unmatched privacy and open space that define the La Cresta lifestyle. Despite its secluded setting, the property remains just minutes from shopping, dining, schools, and convenient freeway access. Rarely does a property combine this level of privacy, acreage, luxury, and unforgettable views. Welcome to one of La Cresta's most captivating hilltop estates.
