Reminiscent of the iconic Casa Del Mar Hotel, this Michael Smith inspired compound is a one of a kind gem, in the highly desired North of Montana neighborhood. As you step onto the property grounds, you're welcomed by a romantic courtyard anchored around a fountain, surrounded by lush lemon trees, manicured boxwoods, and mature trees. Inside, the grand foyer grants access to the main living spaces, each meticulously designed to embody the essence of Spanish style and traditional charm. The formal living room boasts a striking fireplace, French doors, and abundant natural light pouring in through the multiple large windows. Maintaining the elegance, the formal dining room showcases a coffered ceiling, set of French doors to the side yard, and a custom crystal chandelier. Directly connected, the kitchen is a culinary haven, featuring custom cabinetry, stainless steel Wolf appliances, and ample counter seating, seamlessly transitioning into the breakfast nook and family room. The breakfast nook, with its vaulted wood ceiling and walls of windows, invites the outdoors in, flooding the space with natural light. Adjacent, the family room offers a cozy retreat with access to the backyard through beautiful French doors. A spacious secondary foyer/transition room on the ground level provides versatile functionality leading to the office and first guest room wing. The guest bedroom, complete with a full bathroom overlooks the pool and is conveniently adjacent to the office/library. Ascending upstairs, the primary suite spans two stories, featuring a balcony overlooking the backyard and a spa-like bathroom adorned with hand-painted Spanish tiles, a free-standing tub, and skylight. Two additional guest bedrooms and bathrooms are also located on the second level, carrying the same charm found throughout the home. The backyard serves as an entertainer's paradise, featuring a main seating area centered around an outdoor fireplace. The relaxing pool, surrounded by meticulously landscaped gardens and grass has a backdrop of the stunning residence. Every element of this stunning Spanish residence was completed with a high level of detail with no expense spared.
