Seller says sell!! This extraordinary remodel in coveted Paul Nor Estates is a masterclass in sophisticated design and craftsmanship. Set on a lush, 3/4 acre lot on a quiet cul-de-sac, with neighborhood access to top rated Douglass Elementary, the home offers a park-like setting with a distinct nod to Italian elegance. Inside, you'll find thoughtful details like graceful archways, designer lighting, and a warm palette of color, stone and tile. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showstopper, featuring a stylish ILVE Italian induction range, Thermador appliances, soapstone counters and a walk-in pantry. For more formal moments, gather in the sunken living room in front of the new Cerona gas fireplace, or host dinner in the dining room with built in shelving featuring a gorgeous quartzite accent piece. The family room, with its soaring vaulted ceilings, features 8-foot Nana Wall doors that seamlessly erase the boundary between the interior and the expansive outdoor living space. Outside, a new covered patio with hemlock inlayed vaulted ceilings provides the ultimate spot for al fresco dining amidst aspen trees and colorful gardens. The main floor hosts a reimagined primary suite - a true sanctuary with a steam shower, freestanding soaking tub, and a generous walk-in closet with W/D hookups. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath round out the main level, while the lower level offers a guest suite, game room, media room, and a generous storage area perfect for a wine cellar, craft room or workout area. Beyond the aesthetics, the home is mechanically superior. Updates include a 90% high-efficiency heat pump (for heating & cooling), tankless water heater, and a new Brava fire-rated 50-year tile roof. The exterior boasts 3-layer stucco, a new concrete driveway, and professionally designed xeriscaping to keep utility bills low, plus a new septic system in 2022. This is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey estate that balances luxury with a relaxed, indoor-outdoor lifestyle!
