An abundance of natural light welcomes you from two stories of windows as you enter through the grand, double front doors into this voluminous space. Immediately, your eyes are drawn to the lush backyard and mature forest just beyond. You imagine eating dinner with friends and family in the large dining room just off the kitchen and serving drinks to those sitting just outside the kitchen on the bar or under the freshly-painted pergola. Breakfasts are enjoyed in the oversized kitchen, filled with the morning light from the skylights above. Spend winter nights by the dual-sided fireplace in the family room or living room, sipping a cocktail made at the home's classic wet bar. Before the day ends, you can soak in the in-ground hot tub and take in the sounds of nature. Then, head upstairs to the massive master bedroom to rest, only to enjoy the home as much tomorrow. If you're feeling like a swim or some activity, you're just a short walk to the famed Scripps Ranch Swim and Racquet Club and Miramar Lake. This wonderful home has been well-maintained and can be loved just as it is, or you can use it as a fantastic blank canvas to create the home you've always dreamed of; the choice is yours. Either way, you've made it because homes like this don't come along every day.
