This rare retreat marries comfort, creek and canopy. Enter through gates, and into the house under jasmine. The kitchen features elite appliances, a ceiling with distinctive lighting, a granite island, 2 refrigerators and custom cabinetry, all over white oak hardwoods. The family room alongside offers a Regency fireplace capable of heating the house. The formal dining room easily seats 8 beneath a chandelier, and the living room, under a sloping ceiling, features a Majestic gas fireplace and Caston speakers. The principal suite shares its fireplace with the living room and has walk-in closets. The en- suite bathroom features a 4-head shower, a Jacuzzi tub and dual sinks. Work from home is easy in the well-appointed office. Other features abound: 7 HVAC units, just 4 years old, with individual temperature control, and copper rain gutters and fascia. A pathway leads from the home’s front past mature trees and a creek. A zipline and rope swing will thrill youngsters, and the ADU in the back yard can be an office, yoga studio or playhouse. A path leads to Burton Valley Elementary. The outdoor deck adjoins a firepit and grill with seating for 4 at the bar. Extensive garden lighting and a dining area seating 6 or more will make summer evenings incomparable.
