This one-of-a-kind Samarkand home blends sophisticated contemporary architecture with the original 1940’s floor plan. Expertly designed, the 3-bedroom, 2 baths, single-level home evolved over the decades to provide environmental sustainability and practicality with modern luxury. Original oak wood floors grace the bright living room with fireplace, formal dining room, and the front two-bedrooms. Radiant-heated concrete flooring blanket the rest of this showcase home. The custom-built kitchen offers soft lighting, smooth surfaces, and clean, efficient lines. Dark eco-friendly and durable countertops complement the sleek bamboo cabinets and floating shelves. An open concept family room sits adjacent to the kitchen. Walls of glass and clerestory windows line an expansive sun-lit gallery, an ideal environment to display art. At the far end of the gallery resides the private master suite sanctuary. Divided into two spaces, the room offers a media/sitting area, elevated ceilings, clerestory windows, modernized fixtures, a stylized bathroom with walk-in closet, and picturesque garden views. A highlight of the home, the exterior courtyards are truly an extension of the interior living spaces that will both excite and calm your soul. A tranquil water feature replicates the sound of a trickling stream and a steel pergola provides a space to entertain, meditate, or bask in the wonderful coastal climate. A detached 2-car garage, drought-tolerant landscaping, vegetable beds and fruit trees (orange, lemon, avocado) complete this Samarkand haven. Perfectly situated in the desirably calm Samarkand neighborhood yet a stone’s throw from shopping, restaurants, golf courses, the fairgrounds, and highway 101.
