Overview

Set at the start of a quiet cul-de-sac in the Lakes Community, this hillside estate captures what very few homes can, a truly dominant, west-facing vantage point with sweeping 180-degree views and uninterrupted sunsets year-round. This is not just a view; it is the defining feature of the home and one of the most compelling in the entire community. This is a home that balances presence with livability, a property designed to be experienced every day, whether enjoying a quiet sunset or hosting at scale. Opportunities like this, with this combination of view, space, and usability, are rare. Inside, the home is equally well-positioned. The great room features soaring 25-foot ceilings and opens directly to multiple outdoor spaces, creating a natural flow between interior and exterior living. The primary suite includes its own private patio, offering a quiet place to take in the setting. A flexible bonus space, currently used as a home gym, can easily be adapted to fit a variety of needs. The grounds are designed for both scale and comfort, with a layout that supports everything from intimate evenings to large gatherings. A saltwater pool anchors the outdoor space, surrounded by multiple areas to relax, entertain, and take in the view. The outdoor kitchen is fully equipped with a high-end BBQ, EVO grill, gas burner, and dual refrigerators, allowing for effortless hosting. At the center of the yard, a custom-built pavilion stretches more than 40 feet, framed by exposed wood beams and designed as a true extension of the home. A bar-style counter, dual 65-inch televisions, and integrated Bromic heating create a space that works just as well for game days as it does for evening gatherings. The entire outdoor experience is supported by a 52-panel solar system and a fully integrated Sonance sound system that carries throughout the property. Beyond entertaining, the lot offers depth and flexibility rarely found at this level. A hillside basketball court is built seamlessly into the landscape, while mature grounds include multiple producing Haas avocado trees and dedicated garden space positioned for full sun. Expansive grass areas provide room to play, relax, or further customize the property to your vision. Surrounded by open space and mountain vistas, residents enjoy picturesque walking and biking trails winding through the community and an optional membership to The Crosby Club including golf, clubhouse, dining, fitness center, heated lap pool, and tennis courts.
