721 Via De La Paz

Tucked behind a private gate, a charming cobblestone pathway guides you through a lush front yard flanked on either side by mature trees and a beautiful Sycamore, to this tastefully designed Traditional four-bedroom home. With landscaping work by the talented Laurie Lewis - famous for her work at San Ysidro Ranch - the outside presents a tranquil and balanced exterior. The wraparound porch leads to the main level where light hardwood floors and custom light fixtures elevate the space. The interior remodel was crafted by renowned architect Tim Barber and brought to life by the vision of Brooke Wagner Design, who customized the home to exude sophistication while making it feel incredibly welcoming. Upon entry, the front office offers views of the manicured front yard and has an upgraded full bathroom. The large front guest room also provides views of the lush yard and is next to the renovated powder room accented with new marble tile. The spacious second office has ample space to work from home or to create a bonus guest room. The focal point of the home is the main living space comprised of an oversized living room set around the fireplace with built-in shelving and custom finish work - and leads right into the formal dining room with double French doors extending to the impressive backyard. An additional den is located just next to the open kitchen outfitted with Calcatta marble countertops, a large island with seating, high-end appliances including a Viking range and Miele dishwasher, and an adorable built-in breakfast niche. On the upper level, the expansive primary suite is filled with natural sunlight and offers a cozy fireplace with marble surround. Two sets of French doors open to picturesque ocean and mountain views from the private balcony. An incredible ensuite bathroom has been renovated with a relaxing soaking tub, upgraded shower, dual vanities, spacious closets, and a laundry room accessible through the primary suite or upper-level hallway. Plus, there is abundant storage in the attic with access just outside the laundry room. The upper level continues the home's thoughtful floor plan as both guest bedrooms are a generous size with individual full bathrooms. In the backyard, an expansive deck overlooks multiple garden beds, a beautiful fountain, and an extension of the landscape work by Laurie Lewis. Mature hedges surround the backyard to continue the privacy from the front yard all the way around the property. This Traditional home, with impeccable design work from Laurie Lewis, Tim Barber, and Brooke Wagner Design, is in one of the most highly coveted neighborhoods just next to the Palisades Village.
