This custom French Provençal estate in Shady Canyon, Irvine, awakens the senses. Immediately as you approach, the estate welcomes you with a sprawling front lawn- by the way, a uniquely large front yard in comparison to most Shady Canyon homes- charming citrus lined path to the front door, and detailed exteriors like artisan hand-chipped stonework, distressed custom hand-made fully functional shutters, and imported French stone fountain.
On a very special lot, this home was architecturally positioned to capture panoramic views from literally every room and thoughtful enough to include a fountain, vase or terrace in the foreground. Inside, the eye for design is evident as you are transported to Provence with the calming, yet sunny tones of custom paint and varied draperies throughout, down to the charming powder room with a perfect choice of wallpaper and vanity.
Gorgeous hand-scraped, solid walnut floors and extra wide baseboards speak to the quality you find at every corner. Also such a great home for entertaining- and even better if you have a love for baking- with a restaurant quality Sveba Dahlen deck oven, outdoor pizza oven, wine closet and French doors off of nearly every room. Truly a lovely home that is a rare combination of immaculate and welcoming.
