**A MUST SEE** Striking single-story contemporary home with exceptional curb appeal, set on an oversized, beautifully landscaped lot shaded by mature oak trees and enhanced by a circular drive. Ideally located just a short 10-12 minute walk to Highland Park Village's premier shopping and dining. Extensively updated with refined design finishes and major system improvements, the interiors are defined by expansive windows, level 5 finish walls, hardwood flooring, and Lutron LED lighting. A thoughtfully designed open-concept floor plan connects multiple living areas each anchored by electric and gas starter fireplaces creating a seamless flow that is both sophisticated and highly livable, extending effortlessly into a dedicated dining space. The kitchen is both polished and functional, appointed with quartz and SS surfaces, Dacor and SubZero appliances, a large island with seating, and a breakfast bar ideal for casual dining and entertaining, along with an ice maker and walk-in pantry. The primary suite offers a private retreat with a fireplace, dual baths, custom walk-in closets, and direct access to the outdoor deck. Secondary en-suite bedrooms maintain the same level of finish, including a private deck-access suite and a well-positioned front suite ideal for guests, a nursery, or a home office. The backyard is designed for elevated outdoor living, featuring a covered redwood deck, a Harold Leidner-designed pool, newly installed turf (2026), and a separate fenced side yard. Recent capital improvements enhance both functionality and peace of mind, including a new roof (2025), updated HVAC systems with a new 5-ton unit (2026) and air purification upgrades (2024), and a new 50-gallon water heater (2026). Direct rear alley access to the garage offers additional parking and a level of convenience rarely found in the area. **Don't let this one get away!!!
