A whole-home renovation and expansion transformed this home into sleek modern style outside combined with contemporary and traditional design elements inside. Fine wood floors unify the entire home, which showcases the living areas, three bedrooms, and three baths on the elevated main level, including a large suite, plus a luxe primary suite on its own top level enjoys a glass-lined deck and sumptuous Carrara marble bath. Fully retractable glass doors in the living room open to an inviting front deck, a linear electric fireplace and glass-lined staircase are decidedly modern, while classic crown moldings and recessed lighting give a nod to a more traditional style. Plus, all-white cabinetry appoints the kitchen, complete with wine bar and seating for casual meals.

Adding the finishing touch, this Baywood Knolls home is just short blocks to acclaimed Baywood Elementary School and Aragon High School. Welcome home!
