Experience an elevated level of luxury living at this breathtaking Lake Encino Chateau. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in a desirable neighborhood, this residence is also part of the Lake Encino Owner's Association and has private access to two regulation tennis courts, only steps away from the property. Pass through a long, covered loggia which runs alongside a stunning front yard area featuring stone and pebble walkways, mature drought-tolerant landscaping, and a tranquil fountain. The interior of the home starts with a wow factor: A two-story, light-filled foyer which leads to a living room with a massive fireplace, hand-hewn hardwood floors, and three banks of French doors. The living room's lofty ceilings make it the perfect spot for formal entertaining, watching a film in Surround Sound, as well as a quiet evening reading by its impressive fireplace (one of three). The home's banquet-sized dining room centers on fireplace #2, has a coved ceiling, bay windows, and stone floors. The gourmet kitchen is equipped for a Barefoot Contessa and has two islands (one with a porcelain prep sink), a commercial-grade vintage wolf range under a custom industrial hood (2 ovens, griddle, warming rack, and 6 burners), dual Sub-Zero refrigeration, Miele dishwasher, high-end fixtures, and custom floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. A spacious and sunny breakfast room and direct access to a massive pantry and laundry room completes the kitchen complex. Other public rooms include a media room (with a built-in entertainment center) and a gym, both with soaring ceilings.One of the Chateau's most impressive offerings is its 1,200 sq.ft. primary suite. Three intimate balconies with double French doors provide light, air, and fantastic views. Fireplace #3 anchors the suite's sitting area. The primary bathroom has a soaking tub, a step-in glass shower, and a large double vanity with an additional makeup area. There is also a commode closet with its own sink and vanity. Other features of the primary suite include a customized walk-in closet and a massage room (which could become a formal dressing room or an additional walk-in closet).Two guest suites and a maid's suite provide three additional residents with total privacy. The house's large office (which has a bay window, closet, and door for privacy) could "double" as a fifth bedroom and has access to a full bathroom. Two powder rooms (one upstairs, one down) make large gatherings highly functional.The Lake Encino Chateau's grounds include a swimmer's pool/spa with Ozone filtration, a covered patio (with three ceiling fans), a dining area draped with Wisteria vines, and multiple seating areas for outdoor entertaining. A grassy pad (with UC Verde drought-tolerant grass) gives pets a thrill.Other offerings include a 225 bottle temperature-controlled wine closet, security system with cameras, backup generator with two propane tanks, Cat 6 wiring, Crestron system, three-bay garage with EV Charger, three additional off-street parking spaces, and an authentic slate roof.
