Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the appeal of this North Tustin home starts at the curb with green space created by international landscape firm, Terremoto. The warmth will overtake you as you walk into the vaulted entry and then onto the spacious living room. Cathedral ceilings add volume to the space and the expansive windows flood the room with sunlight. The formal dining room is dinner party perfect and adjoins the recently remodeled kitchen. Rich, dark, custom made cabinetry, granite counter and massive center island fill this kitchen with plenty of counter space as well as a gathering spot for friends. In the family room you'll find plantation shutters and custom built library bookshelves nicely set off by the stone fireplace. Four bedrooms fill the upper level including a spacious master bedroom with ensuite bath and walk-in closet. Secondary bedrooms are freshly painted and one is set up as a home office w/ built-ins. Additional features include three car garage with plenty of driveway parking, inside laundry room and dual pane windows and sliders. The entertainer's back yard is quiet and tranquil with zen-like landscaping and a private swimming pool. Use the covered patio for all of your outdoor entertaining or to just sit quietly poolside. The yard is complete with fruit trees, raised bed vegetable garden and automated drip watering system front and back. Neighborhood schools include top rated Arroyo Elementary, Hewes Middle and Foothill High Schools.
