Looking for a home that inspires you more than a gray and white "modern farmhouse?" If so, then this is the home for you! You will love living in this expanded and completely remodeled (down to the studs) warm contemporary home. The light and bright open floorplan is perfect for today's lifestyle with multiple areas for gathering; You'll be proud to have people visit whether it's having a few friends over for drinks by the sleek wet-bar or for when it's your turn to host Thanksgiving dinner in the holiday-sized dining room. You can also look forward to entertaining friends and family in the gourmet kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, beautiful custom walnut cabinetry, quartz countertops, large pantry, and a breakfast bar for sharing your midnight snack. After a hard day, unwind with a soak in the primary suite's spa-like bathroom or relax with a glass of wine on the private terrace. All 5 bedrooms (4 up & 1 down) have en suite bathrooms and the layout would be ideal for a work-from-home setup, media room, home gym, or guest room. There is even a separate teen hang out/gaming/office area on the upper level. The outdoor space is a true entertainer's delight with an intimate side-patio, swim/spa, sun-deck, raised dining area, built in BBQ, children's play area and a usable flat pad at the top of the yard for gardening, yoga, etc. The home is sited on a gated, wooded south of Ventura lot that affords both privacy and security. Even though you will feel as if you are "living away from it all," you are still only moments away from the best dining, shopping and nightlife to be found on Ventura Boulevard and beyond.
