Of the home’s 4 bedrooms (and office—which could serve as a 5th), 3 are collected upstairs, including the impressive master suite. The bedroom is highlighted by a large balcony with double-doors, 2 closets (1 walk-in), breezy windows, in-wall sound system, and reading lights. Plenty of room for a “king” here
Master bathroom has a spa-like feel and is adorned with Ann Sacks tiles, Dorn Bracht and Gessi chrome fixtures, separate tub and shower, Wetstyle free-standing “tulip” tub filler, side-by-side sinks, and Calacatta Marble counters. 2 Robern medicine cabinets with interior electrical outlets add additional functionality to the beauty of this bath

Direct-access 2-car garage is currently used as a gym and has new rubber flooring. The garage has plenty of storage and also contains side-by-side laundry machines and a kitchenette.

The cul-de-sac portion of Ellison on which this house sits offers plenty of on-street parking for gatherings or daily in-and-out use

The property’s 11,633 sq.ft. grounds are fully enclosed and gated (dog-friendly), contain a large, flat grassy area, terraced areas, fruit trees, and herb and vegetable garden.

BONUS ALERT: A custom-designed 100-sq.ft. “studio/bonus room” with separate HVAC is in the home’s multi-functional backyard. This unpermitted (but “built-to-code”) structure offers multiple solutions to the question of “where do I put my…?” [We are not including this additional square-footage in the total, which comes from the Assessor’s records)
