Move-in ready 4bdr/2.2 bath home plus 700 sq. ft studio above the 2.5 car garage is perfect for today's lifestyles with plenty of places for privacy plus lots of room for togetherness. Owned and updated by a renowned artist, this is a super cool unique place to live, work and play. There's three levels of finished living space in the home with 3 bdrs and large full bath upstairs. The fourth bedroom is on the main floor (currently used as a media room). The spacious living room features energy efficient windows (found throughout the home) and a gas fireplace.

Custom steel and concrete stairs take you to the sprawling lower level with a family/rec/media room, a full spa-like bathroom, a separate sauna plus laundry room & huge work room. Low maintenance epoxy floors currently covered with large oriental rugs ... good proof that this level stays dry. Zoned heating. If you aren't already totally wowed, take a stroll through the gorgeous fenced yard (easy-to-maintain perennials and hardscape) up a custom steel stairway to the jaw dropping studio. Soaring, vaulted ceiling. Crisp, white walls. Energy efficient windows & skylights. New, efficient heating system. Half bath. Currently used as an artist studio and ready for your own interpretation.
