Reminiscent of the great estates of Santa Barbara, this just completed two-year full-scale renovation meticulously blends a classic California Mediterranean aesthetic with a fresh twist on warm, contemporary interiors. Nationally noted interior designer Alison Pickart (www.alisonpickart.com) seamlessly blends designer lighting, Oak flooring, timeless metal doors and windows, and rustic wood beams for an unrivaled residential experience. Soaring +- 12’ ceilings grace the main public spaces which flow seamlessly to the resort like grounds and outdoor entertaining spaces. The highly flexible floor plan allows for customized use of multiple large public spaces. The heart of the home is a magazine worthy, grand scale chef’s kitchen/great room that opens directly to the resort like grounds. The five bedroom, three and a half bathroom main residence offers four bedrooms, including the primary suite, on the upper level, with an additional main level bedroom (currently staged as an office). The detached one-bedroom guest house + pool house is conveniently located adjacent to the pool and offers endless possibilities for in-laws, teens, an au-pair, or pool house. The +- 4,030 square foot residence + guest house is perfectly site placed on a mostly level +- 4/10th of an acre. The resort like grounds include a sweeping level lawn, in ground pool and spa, fire pit, built-in barbeque, lounging spaces, mature plantings, and multiple areas for al fresco dining and entertaining. The residence is south facing with all day light and sun and offers Mt. Tam views from the upper level. 221 Poplar is located in the coveted flats of prestigious Del Mesa in the Ross School District, just blocks from downtown Ross, the award winning K-8th grade Ross School, and with easy access to the myriad of hiking and biking trails in the Phoenix Lake recreational area.
