Quietly tucked away on the upper ridge of the Riviera, a rare, full-acre mountain-view wonderland awaits. Located on a cul-de-sac just steps above Franceschi park, this oak-strewn retreat offers remarkable privacy and astounding views from nearly every vantage point—even peeks of the ocean to the south. As you step through the front door, you'll find yourself transported far beyond the walls of this 2,000+ square foot home. From the spacious living room, an enormous picture window frames dazzling views to the backyard and the mountains behind it. A brick fireplace, open-beam vaulted ceilings, and built-in cabinetry convey a mid-century style and sophistication. Throughout the home, large sliding doors to the backyard invite residents and guests to enjoy the mountain views, sunny patios, fresh air, and solitude. The darling kitchen features views to both the front and back of the home, and sits adjacent to a large dining or breakfast area. Just a few steps from the kitchen are the laundry room and an attached 2-car garage. At the other end of the home pleasantly secluded from the common areas the primary bedroom suite and two guest bedrooms provide ample accommodation for family, guests, or an office. Outside, the fenced property provides space for kids or pets to roam. Hedges along the front of the home offer enhanced privacy, and a convenient pull-through driveway and additional parking spaces provide ample room for vehicles. Recent upgrades include various landscaping improvements and extensive tree work to maximize enjoyment of the breathtaking views.

RS-1A
One-Family Residence Zone
This zone is intended to provide areas for single-unit housing on individual lots at appropriate low densities of one unit per legal lot with allowances for an Accessory Dwelling Unit or Two-Unit Residential Development when certain standards are met. Designators (e.g. -25, -15) refer to minimum lot size in thousands of square ft or, in the case of RS-1A, acres. The regulations for the RS Zone are intended to limit activities which would be inharmonious with or injurious to the preservation and character of a residential environment. Nonresidential uses are limited to those that support daily life of neighborhoods and complement surrounding residential development. Nonresidential uses are strictly limited in order to mitigate impacts associated with nonresidential uses such as: traffic, increased parking demand, light, glare, and noise.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Agriculture
Livestock production
