Topanga Tranquility, Calabasas Ease. Tucked along a sun-dappled oak-lined street in the heart of the coveted Las Virgenes School District, this Spanish-style sanctuary is a love letter to Topanga's untamed beauty and Calabasas' effortless elegance. A warm and gracious welcome begins at the threshold, where sunlight dances across the classic wrought iron entry gates, and double doors open to the foyer.In the living room, bright sun filters through shuttered French doors, casting golden light on wood floors and a graceful fireplace that anchors the room in quiet charm. Here, space and light conspire to create a home that breathesopen, flowing, and exquisitely attuned to its surroundings. An open dining room sits to one side, both separate, and part of the action. Lush hillside views inspire, and the whisper of wind in the trees becomes part of the daily soundtrack. Nearly every room opens to the great outdoors, to enhance that Topanga Lifestyle. Every detail has been chosen with intention, from rich custom walnut doors that lend warmth and depth, to the refined palette of materials that strike a perfect balance between earthiness and sophistication.The grand, open kitchen, recently reimagined with a designer's eye and an entertainer's spirit, is both centerpiece and gathering place. With top-of-the-line appliances, generous countertops, walls of cabinetry, a large waterfall island, and a full-size wine fridge ready for uncorking celebration, it invites conversation, laughter, and culinary artistry alike. A bountiful pantry corrals all of the goods.Upstairs, serenity takes center stage. Three bedrooms reside on this level, with a thoughtful powder room tucked conveniently at the stair landing for guests. One bedroom is currently an open area, perfect as a play room, gym, office, or gathering space. A second bedroom sits beside. Both rooms open through French doors to a large, covered front deck, perfect for watching the hawks surf the updrafts, or listening to rainfall on treetops. The primary suite is an airy, sunlit retreat, where mornings begin with birdsong and end with stargazing out of the French doors facing the back patio. There is a large walk in closet. A generous en suite has a glass walled shower and a deep soaking tub set in a bay window that basks in the panorama of the mountains' quiet poetryan invitation to pause, reflect, and exhale.Outdoors, the low-maintenance back yard is a canvas for leisurely afternoons and golden-hour reverie.
