Tucked away on a private, gated cul-de-sac in one of Encino's most desirable pockets, this extraordinary architectural residence delivers a level of craftsmanship, design, and luxury rarely found at this price point. A striking blend of organic textures, natural stone, and timeless materials creates a home that feels both sophisticated and effortlessly inviting. Beyond the dramatic custom arched white oak entry door, soaring ceilings, sculpted archways, Earthaus natural lime plaster walls, wire-brushed white oak floors, and a floating staircase set the tone for interiors that are as impressive as they are livable. Designed for entertaining on every scale, the showstopping chef's kitchen features dual Taj Mahal quartzite islands, custom fluted cabinetry, a full suite of Thermador appliances, Watermark antique brass fixtures, and an oversized walk-in pantry. A beautifully appointed stone-wrapped serving bar complements the dining area, creating a seamless setting for hosting. Throughout the home, spa-inspired bathrooms showcase handcrafted Zellige tile, integrated stone sinks, and designer fixtures, while the powder room makes its own statement with Gessi fixtures and hand-applied Roman clay walls. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, featuring a spectacular bathroom wrapped in silver travertine, microcement shower walls, a freestanding soaking tub, and skylights that flood the space with natural light. A custom walk-in closet with integrated LED lighting and its own skylight completes the retreat. Outside, a private resort awaits. A sports court, fully equipped cabana with bathroom, built-in BBQ, fire pit, and covered patio with ceiling heaters create the ultimate setting for year-round entertaining and relaxation. Additional highlights include a Control4 smart home system, a separate attached recreation room with kitchenette and 5.1 surround sound, a two-car garage, and additional driveway parking. The neighborhood also enjoys private security patrol. Ideally located within the sought-after Lanai Road Elementary School District and minutes from Ventura Boulevard's acclaimed restaurants, boutiques, and everyday conveniences. A rare opportunity to experience the privacy of a gated retreat, the sophistication of bespoke architecture, and the lifestyle of a luxury resort, all in the heart of Encino.
