Pros & Cons

Exquisite Craftsmanship & Design: Fully reimagined in 2008 with 'no expense spared,' the home features artisan craftsmanship, timeless European materials like 300-year-old French tiles, hand-hewn wood beams, and elegant finishes throughout.
Gourmet Chef's Kitchen: The kitchen is a 'chef's dream' equipped with marble countertops, custom cabinetry, a sociable island, and top-tier appliances including a La Cornue range, Sub-Zero fridge, Miele dishwasher, and Viking microwave.
Sustainable & Modern Infrastructure: The property includes significant eco-friendly upgrades such as a 13-panel solar system, two Tesla Powerwalls (circa 2022), tankless water heating, and whole-home water filtration, offering energy efficiency and modern convenience.

Cons

Age of Primary Renovation: While 'reimagined in 2008' and featuring 'recent updates,' the core renovation is over 15 years old, which might lead some buyers to consider certain elements potentially dated or requiring future updates to align with current luxury trends.
Lack of Explicit Central Air Conditioning: The description highlights 'ocean breezes' but does not explicitly mention a central air conditioning system, which is a common expectation in luxury homes, even in coastal climates, for consistent comfort.
Limited Traditional Yard Space: The property emphasizes patios and views from a 'mountaintop oasis,' suggesting a terraced or smaller, less traditional flat yard, which may not appeal to buyers seeking expansive lawn areas for recreation or gardening.
