Tucked within one of Almaden’s most desirable neighborhoods, this single-story residence blends Mediterranean charm with contemporary sophistication. Defined by its red tile roof, white stucco exterior, and mature drought-tolerant landscaping, the home’s curb appeal strikes a perfect balance between timeless design and low-maintenance serenity. A gated courtyard entry framed by ornamental grasses and agave leads the way inside, where vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, wide-plank hardwood floors, and walls of glass immediately set an inviting tone.

The double living spaces are anchored by a dual-sided brick fireplace that warms both the expansive lounge and the adjoining media room, creating flexibility for entertaining or quiet retreat. Contemporary cable railings with wood railings add a subtle modern update, while multiple sliding doors extend the interiors outward to the pool and mountain views beyond.

At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen showcases walnut cabinetry with sleek contemporary hardware, crisp quartz countertops, and a porcelain tile backsplash. A generous island with a walnut wood top and pendant lighting doubles as both prep space and casual dining, while a farmhouse sink and gas cooktop with vented hood elevate the home’s functionality. The adjacent dining room provides a more formal setting with views to the front garden, offering seamless flow between everyday comfort and special occasions.

The primary suite is a serene retreat, featuring abundant natural light softened by woven shades, hardwood floors, and direct access to a luxurious bath with dual vanity, frameless glass shower with pebble flooring, mounted towel warmer, and partitioned toilet area. A large walk-in closet is outfitted with custom cabinetry, while the secondary bedrooms also enjoy hardwood flooring, excellent natural light, and newly installed built-ins. The hall bath makes a stylish impression with stacked white tile, penny-round accents, and a tub/shower combination.

A finished bonus room, once a third-car garage, expands the home’s versatility with bamboo flooring, heating and cooling, and the flexibility to serve as an office, gym, or creative studio.

Outdoors, the property unfolds into a private oasis centered around an in-ground pool and newly poured concrete decking. An expansive covered patio with a built-in grilling station and lounge space creates an effortless environment for entertaining, while mature landscaping ensures privacy without sacrificing views of the surrounding mountains. The landscaping is both drought-tolerant and beautifully layered, with ornamental grasses, agave, and lawn space enhancing the home’s welcoming character.

Modern comforts extend throughout the property, including a gas Navien tankless water heater, updated condenser unit, EV charger-ready garage, and consistent use of quality finishes across all rooms. The overall result is a home that blends the warmth of ranch and Mediterranean architecture with thoughtful updates, exceptional livability, and a strong connection to the outdoors—all just minutes from the award-winning Almaden schools.
