Welcome to this truly one-of-a-kind luxury single-family home in the heart of Lakeview, perfectly positioned on a rare cul-de-sac that offers privacy, quiet, and direct access to Chi Che Wang Park-all while being just a short walk to highly rated Burley Elementary. Thoughtfully designed and recently updated, this 4-bedroom + bonus room, 4.1-bath home offers a rare combination of space, seclusion, and elevated finishes-plus a 2-car attached garage and three outdoor spaces, including a 500 sq. ft. walkout terrace and a full rooftop deck with skyline views. Inside, the home is loaded with architectural character and functional upgrades. The main living area features coffered ceilings, a striking floor-to-ceiling two-way stone fireplace, hardwood floors, and a freshly updated powder room. A dramatic 20-foot ceiling elevates the formal dining room, now enhanced with new statement lighting.The reimagined chef's kitchen is the heart of the home, outfitted with custom white Shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a generous custom walk-in pantry, and it seamlessly flows to a second living area. Step outside to a large terrace with park views, a remote-controlled awning, and an outdoor fireplace-ideal for everyday living or entertaining. The second level features three bedrooms, including a sunny south-facing primary suite with a spacious five-piece bath and a well-placed laundry room. On the top floor, you'll find a guest suite, home office, and a third living area with a built-out dry bar and access to the rooftop deck with city views.The lower level adds even more flexibility with a home gym or theater space, mudroom with built-in dog wash, and newer mechanicals throughout. A truly rare find-this home checks every box: space, location, thoughtful updates, and a unique cul-de-sac setting in the middle of the city.
