Tucked discreetly behind a wrought-iron gate and up a long, picturesque driveway that crosses a charming bridge, this beautifully reimagined ranch-style retreat offers a rare blend of privacy and allure. Sheltered beneath a canopy of oak trees and framed by vibrant rose gardens, the home exudes warmth and sophistication. Meticulously remodeled with high-end finishes and an exceptional eye for detail by interior designer Paula Bruss, the single-story residence is filled with natural light, thanks to expansive windows that capture the sun from dawn to dusk. Vaulted ceilings, refined stone and tile work, designer fixtures, and architectural character elevate every room with timeless charm. French doors open to an enchanting backyard oasis, with a spectacularly oversized swimming pool and lush green lawn perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the serenity of nature. The long paver-stone driveway leads to a spacious motor court with ample parking, in addition to a two-car attached garage. A separate, private guest house complete with a full bathroom and kitchenette offers ideal accommodations for guests, extended family, or a home office. The main residence includes three bedrooms (one of which is currently converted into a custom closet but can be easily reverted), spanning approximately 3,770 sq ft. The guest house adds an additional approximate 400 sq ft of well-appointed living space.
