Centrally located in the heart of the Santa Lucia Preserve, this California Spanish Colonial style home embraces clean, contemporary lines with traditional elements like arched doorways and windows, exposed beams and trusses, period-inspired tilework, deep stucco walls and expansive indoor-outdoor living. The house unfolds in a tiered layout, and a grand gallery seamlessly connects the three ensuite bedrooms and library on the West end of the home to the great room and kitchen on the East end, designed to take advantage of the morning sun. A loft above the great room and an office tower are thoughtfully incorporated into the living spaces. A detached 500 sq. ft. workshop is an additional bonus space. Sited against a gently sloping hillside, the home harmonizes with the natural contours of the surrounding trees and landscape. Sweeping views expand beyond the Equestrian Center to the rolling hills of the Santa Lucia Preserve. Within walking distance is the Hacienda, the gym and pool facilities at The Ranch Club and the community hub, The Nest. This timeless residence reflects a thoughtful dialogue between architecture, light, and landscape.
