Fans of traditional architecture and nostalgic Americana rejoice! This beloved family home is gracefully positioned on the view side of the highly sought after Piedra Morada cul-de-sac, in the prestigious Palisades Hills enclave of the Palisades Highlands. As you enter you are welcomed by a grand, yet inviting two story foyer and wide center hall that continues through a bright and airy main level, which boasts a formal living room with warm fireplace, a large dining room with butlers pantry, an eat-in country kitchen with center island, which opens to a large family room with a bar with built-in cabinetry, a brick fireplace and tall French doors that lead out to a private sunny backyard, with panoramic mountain, canyon and city views, patio dining area with retractable awning, brick lined in-ground jetted spa for relaxation and ample room to add a pool, if one so chooses. In addition, there is a kid friendly skate park recently built into the side yard for added outdoor enjoyment. Also on the main level you will find a guest powder room, private office, maids/guest bedroom with bathroom, laundry room, three car garage and excellent storage space. A visually stunning staircase leads you to the second floor where you will find an expansive master suite with wood burning fireplace, large balcony to take in the views, two walk-in closets, a marble laden master bathroom with dual vanities, steam shower and cathartic bath tub overlooking relaxing mountain and city views. A beautiful wood paneled study, three additional bedrooms and two additional baths complete the second story floorplan. A recently installed solar panel system provides increased energy independence, efficiency and storage capacity when needed. Just a few steps across the road from this home the Palisades Hills Recreation Center offers it's members exclusive access to its sparkling pool, jetted spa tub, well maintained tennis courts, basketball court, clubhouse for events, along with 24 hour security patrol included in the HOA. Residents also enjoy membership access to the gated Highlands Park/dog park and picnic area. A home like this is a rare find indeed.
