The home
About 1 Observatory
This beautiful Tuscan inspired four bedroom and four bath Cypress Classico home offers one of the most sought-after floor plans in the guard gated community of Pacific Ridge. Extensively upgraded in 2010, this Taylor Woodrow home had a dramatic remodel by the design firm Chris Woodburn Interiors. Full of natural lighting from its corner lot location, this stunning home boasts a ground floor suite, hand-scraped oil finished Walnut floors throughout, Walker Zanger flooring and finishes in all bathrooms, as well as entertainment and surround sound systems. The heart of the home features a large chef's kitchen with Caesarstone island and counter tops, custom mosaic backsplash, and professional grade appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family and dining rooms, both offering soothing backyard views of the outdoor fireplace, the oversized fountain-filled spa, custom stonework, and the loggia. The outdoor areas, including a private BBQ island and seating area, were professionally landscaped by Patrick's Landscaping. The staircase with custom wrought iron balusters leads you upstairs where a large master suite is showcased with its own private patio, as well as two secondary bedrooms and laundry room. This home's finishes will truly impress you.
