This beautifully designed home with detached garage has a wonderful "Provincial" flair and lots of curb appeal, as you are greeted up the long driveway with mature boxwood shrubs, lavender, olive and other drought tolerant manicured Mediterranean landscaping. Step inside and you'll notice this home elegantly blends indoor and outdoor spaces with the many large windows and French doors with views to the wonderful exterior gardens. Antiqued travertine flooring flows throughout the entry, hall and into the kitchen with breakfast room, while engineered wide plank wood flooring is showcased in the living room and formal dining room. The living room features a fireplace cladded in limestone tile with herringbone hearth, custom window shutters and wood ceiling beams and the dining room is adorned with a stylized ceiling and French doors which open to the private, serene backyard. The large remodeled kitchen boasts a dual fuel Aga range with three ovens, a KitchenAid refrigerator, baking island with marble top and custom high end cabinetry. The primary bedroom is a true oasis with a wardrobe closet and a stunningly renovated bathroom featuring large marble tiles and a marble vanity. This originally four-bedroom home now offers a spacious third bedroom with a walk-in closet, accompanied by a full hall/guest bathroom. Outside, the mature shade trees, patio, and planting areas create a charming retreat and the dog run adds practicality. This home is nestled within the prestigious Los Alamitos school district with close proximity to nearby parks, shopping and restaurants and only minutes to the beach!
