As you approach this stunning Serrano Heights estate, the stately walkway surrounded by swaying palm trees hints at the wonderful home that awaits inside. Stepping through the front door from the gated courtyard with a lovely fountain, the two-story foyer filled with natural light from clerestory windows washes over you with the comfortable elegance of this Mediterranean style home. The foyer opens to the formal living room, which has an elegant cast stone fireplace and a large artwork niche. The formal dining room is opposite the living room with double doors off the foyer. Once inside the dining room, you note that French doors open to the entry courtyard so you may enjoy the relaxing sound of the fountain as you dine. Just beyond the dining room is an enormous family room, also filled with natural light from the two-story ceilings accented with clerestory windows. Natural wood plantation shutters accent the windows and there is a second cast stone fireplace.
