What a find! It is a true surprise that awaits here nestled within the San Rafael neighborhood on this idyllic tree canopied way. The elegant yet understated front elevation belies this tastefully updated five-bedroom and four bath home that is almost 3,500sf. The formal entry opens to the original formal living and dining rooms with hardwood flooring, detailed wood trim, and a fireplace. The chef's kitchen has been updated with granite counters, center isle, and stainless appliances. The family room has a soaring ceiling, hardwood floors, and gorgeous over-sized windows looking over the rear grounds. This main level has three bedrooms and two full baths. The primary suite is a true retreat with a huge bedroom, updated bath with soaking tub and separate stall shower, large closets, and a balcony view. Downstairs there are two more large bedroom suites with updated baths, a large home office with custom built-in cabinetry, and a hidden home theatre with extravagant seating for family and guests. The rear yard features a stunning two-tiered pool and spa and a built-in BBQ kitchen. There is also a sumptuous cabana added in 2006 with a high ceiling, custom built-ins, and another gorgeous bath. A new roof was just installed on the main house, which also has central air and heating, and an attached garage.
