Description
Behind the gates of Covenant Hills in Ladera Ranch's intimate Las Piedras enclave, this rarely available single-level Plan 1B with second floor Casita residence by Standard Pacific captures the quiet romance of an old-world European villa. Set on a private cul-de-sac, the homesite was hand-selected by its original owners for its privacy, abundant natural light, and sweeping sunset views across the valley. From the moment you enter, the home unfolds as a series of intimate outdoor spaces. An entry courtyard with a welcoming fountain leads to a grand central courtyard, where the gentle sound of flowing water becomes the backdrop to everyday life. Beyond, a secluded backyard offers a covered loggia with fireplace, a four-foot-deep saltwater spa with cascading water feature, additional fountains, and panoramic sunset views. With six fountains thoughtfully placed throughout the property, the calming rhythm of water drifts from courtyard to courtyard and into the home's living spaces. Hand-laid natural stone, traditional bump-and-roll stucco, and an authentic clay tile roof establish the home's enduring character, while soaring ceilings-including a dramatic two-story living room-fill the interiors with light. Honed marble floors, hand-scraped hardwood, cased windows, oversized baseboards, decorative faux beams, four handcrafted plaster fireplaces, and custom built-ins lend warmth and authenticity throughout. The kitchen is appointed with rich cherry cabinetry, premium KitchenAid appliances with a built-in refrigerator, granite countertops, a stacked-stone backsplash, and extensive Walker Zanger stone. Marble showers, limestone bath countertops, and an elegant onyx tile backsplash in the powder room reflect the same commitment to craftsmanship. A desirable main-level primary suite is complemented by an expanded secondary bedroom-a rare builder option-ideal as a guest suite, office, or potential fourth bedroom. Upstairs, a detached casita with its own bath offers exceptional flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or a private studio. Additional amenities include a six-zone whole-home audio system, whole-house water filtration and softener, reverse osmosis, RO water drinking system, tankless water heater, and an oversized three-car garage with epoxy floors and built-in storage. Beautifully maintained, this is more than a home of exceptional craftsmanship. It is where architecture, landscape, water, and light come together in quiet harmony.
