Provence in Topanga. This single story home with a huge outbuilding, feels like old world luxury; like a farmhouse somewhere in the Mediterranean, that has been lovingly cared for and updated over the years. Behind a private gate, the home nestles on over half an acre of mostly flat, lush gardens. Sunlight streams through towering old Oaks. A tree swing beckons. Heady scents of lavender, rosemary, roses, and the wild chaparral float on the breeze. The nicker of a neighboring horse lulls, flooding you with a sense of peace and well-being. A welcoming front porch opens to your graceful living room, with high beamed ceilings, and glass doors opening to the verdant yard. Nestle by the fireplace as you gaze at distant hills. The open plan welcomes friends and family to commune together as a feast is cooked in the refreshed kitchen with new premium counters and new subway tile backsplash. An elegant dining room with sophisticated lighting opens to the kitchen. A cozy den sits nearby. Romance is in the air in the spacious owner's suite, with French doors leading to the gardens and to the spacious travertine lined bath, with soaking tub and glass walled shower. Two spacious bedrooms in their own wing share a bright bath. Store all of your things in the back mudroom with its long wall of cabinetry. With a little weatherizing, the long outbuilding could be barns, studios, garden rooms, or playrooms. A new roof shelters. Fully fenced, tranquil paths wander through gardens laden with flowers. Wide stone patios host feasts that go long into the golden evening. Flowers and fruit trees sway. You are close to all Topanga has to offer, the shops and cafes, the beach, and nearby secret trails into Topanga State Park. Horses and Peacocks are some of your neighbors. You are nurtured here. Inspired. All is well.
