12 Burning Tree, nestled in the gated enclave of Big Canyon, is a timeless masterpiece and a product of California’s most talented architects, builders and interior designers. This exquisite residence offers a lifestyle of unparalleled luxury and was constructed using only the finest materials including reclaimed, lime washed European brick, Brombal steel windows and doors, Waterworks plumbing fixtures, and custom European light fixtures. Upon entering the expansive great room, you are greeted with 30-foot cathedral ceilings adorned with voluminous steel windows and doors that help to blend the mature landscaping into the living space. The kitchen showcases a 56-inch La Cornue range, custom hood, top-of-the-line appliances, center island with bar seating and a cozy eating nook. The kitchen is flanked by a butler’s kitchen and a craft room, both with pocket doors. A dining room sits adjacent to the great room with plaster walls and custom wine storage. The main floor primary suite presents wood beam ceilings, herringbone wood floors, a fireplace, and French doors to the rear yard. The focal point of the primary bath is a stunning solid marble soaking tub. Through pocket doors an intimate library wing enjoys views of the large yard and pool while a staircase leads to a private home gym with a sauna. On the opposite wing of the main level, a generous guest suite was designed with a chic palette of moody tones and textures. Ascending to the second floor, two oversized guest en-suites await. The first is paneled in bleached white oak while the second was designed with four custom bunk beds. Across a bridge walkway with floor-to-ceiling windows, the ultimate bonus room awaits. This oasis is centered around a large fireplace and includes a daybed and a built-in bar. When the mood calls, this room converts into a home theater with blackout window treatments and superb entertainment system where guests can enjoy theater-quality entertainment in the comfort of home. The rear yard sanctuary provides the perfect escape to enjoy the coastal climate. A 600 sq ft covered loggia offers an outdoor kitchen, abundant seating for entertaining and a dedicated dining area. A saltwater pool with spillover spa includes underwater speakers to create an unparalleled experience. The home enjoys a tranquil location, and is located across the street from one of Big Canyon’s private parks.
