The luxurious primary suite offers tray ceilings, dual walk-in closets, a spa-like bath with soaking tub and chandelier, large walk in shower and breathtaking arched windows overlooking farmland and the mountains beyond. A completely renovated in-law quarters adds versatility and privacy—featuring a brand-new kitchen, new bath, new gas fireplace, French door to the terrace, and a newly added den that expands the square footage. The walk-out lower level is built with 10-foot ceilings and superior walls, and includes 2,000+ sq ft of entertaining space, a third kitchenette, media and dining areas, two large bedrooms, and a shared oversized bath—all opening to a second flagstone patio through French doors.
