Experience a lifestyle of ultimate serenity, tranquility, and coastal living at this expertly remodeled Mediterranean home found in a prime, coveted North of Montana neighborhood. Perfectly placed drought-tolerant landscaping adorns a charming pathway that leads to an arched entrance and rich wood door, inviting guests inside. The double-height foyer welcomes natural light through a skylight overhead as wood floors flow into the public entertaining spaces. To the left, discover a formal living room with exposed wood beams, brushed copper lighting, large windows framing greenery, terra cotta floors, and a stylish fireplace with mosaic tiling. To the right, a marvelous wood-paneled library, study, or office includes built-in shelving and plantation shutters. The family room opens to the outside and is positioned adjacent to the recently updated kitchen with butcher block center island, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, farm sink, and an abundance of cabinetry, storage space, and eat-in breakfast area. Each of these spaces have French doors that open in all directions, maximizing indoor-outdoor flow and perfect for serving al-fresco bites. There is also a butler's pantry with wine refrigeration, granite counters, and prep sink. The nearby formal dining room is spacious and features Gothic revival sconces, contributing to the home's vibe. Upstairs, the sprawling primary suite includes a fireplace, sitting lounge, private balcony, and two walk-in closets. Its en-suite bathroom has a dual-sink vanity, glass-enclosed shower, and jetted tub. Secondary bedrooms are light-filled and have built-ins, and one offers a cozy reading nook. Bathrooms have also been remodeled with on-trend finishes and fixtures, and the fifth bedroom is a versatile space off the kitchen that can be used as a guest room, gym/yoga studio, and more. In the backyard, roam and play on the grassy lawn, lounge and converse with friends on the rooftop deck, or barbecue and entertain under blue California skies. Enjoy aromas of fragrant and sweet jasmine or pluck a huge lemon from the mature citrus trees. This highly desirable pocket, with an excellent Walk Score, is close to so much of what makes living in Santa Monica special, from nearby boutiques, fine dining, and shopping, to Ocean Avenue and world-famous beaches. As if that were not enough, there are also award-winning public and private schools. Welcome!
