About this home

Along a secluded drive in the hills of Brentwood sits a modernist refuge where clean lines frame spectacular views. This recently transformed residence captures canyon vistas and city lights, delivering what discerning buyers seek most thoughtful design and privacy without isolation. A serene courtyard with a fountain and olive trees provides a welcoming first impression. As you enter the home, light streams through skylights and a wall of Fleetwood glass, casting a luminous glow across the open-concept layout. The living room features custom built-in cabinetry and flows seamlessly into the kitchen, dining area, and lounge space. The kitchen commands attention with its striking yet timeless Calacatta Viola countertops, walnut island, and custom cabinetry. The primary suite is the perfect retreat, with Fleetwood doors opening on two sides to maximize light and create a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The primary bath is designed to be soothing and filled with natural light from a skylight and windows. Down the hall, two additional bedrooms share a thoughtfully designed bathroom with a bathtub. Separate from the bedrooms, you'll find a beautiful powder bath with shower, laundry room, and a versatile room that could be utilized as a separate family room, fourth bedroom, or home office. Outside, the expansive backyard creates a private oasis with dedicated areas for BBQing, lounging, dining, and gathering around the fire pit as evening falls -- all positioned to capture the stunning canyon views. This coveted canyon residence embodies the essence of contemporary California living.
