PACIFIC SHORES l Less than one mile from the coast at The Villas in Huntington Beach's gated Pacific Shores enclave, this model-caliber residence blends premium luxury and sophisticated style with generous proportions and enviable privacy. An intimate cul-de-sac setting complements the home, which is introduced by a private gated and tiled courtyard with built-in BBQ. Indoors, a sense of having arrived is present in a three-level floorplan that extends approximately 3,763 square feet. Five ensuite bedrooms and five baths are featured, including a main-level suite that is excellent for guests and a third-floor suite that is an ideal home office. Primed for entertaining and upscale living, the first level displays a formal dining room opening to a covered patio, and a spacious living room anchored by a fireplace with floor-to-ceiling stone surround. The kitchen is truly impressive, complete with direct access to the courtyard, a nook, dual-height circular island, granite countertops and a full tile backsplash. KitchenAid appliances include a built-in refrigerator and a dual-oven range with six burners and a griddle, and the butler's pantry reveals a built-in tap and under-cabinet beverage refrigerator. On the second level, a large loft is joined by two secondary bedrooms, including one with a covered balcony, a laundry room with top-of-the-line washer-and-dryer set from LG, and the primary suite. Homeowners will enjoy a lux primary suite with covered balcony overlooking the courtyard, a spacious walk-in closet with built-in organizers, and an opulent bath with individual vanities, a jetted soaking tub and separate shower.
