Imagine the entertainer's paradise sitting at the top of Palo Camodo in Old Agoura. All you have to do to get there is climb the 28 steps, the stairway to a land of enchantment……..where you’ll find a grotto with water spilling out of its Jacuzzi; where the slide down to the pool is as long as any you’d find in a theme park…….where the 2nd waterfall at the end of the pool leads to a lower grotto, complete with water-bar, enhanced by a brilliant tile mosaic of the Italian seaside.
And all a person can do is wonder….. at the canopy of oak trees leading to the entrance of this home, where tumbled travertine floors hint at what’s inside these 5,470 square feet: a family room with a stacked-stone fireplace, vertical garden sunken above its mantle. Right off this huge room is a dream kitchen housing a Wolf range, Sub-zero refrigerator, kitchen island topped with a unique granite imbedded with sparkling quartz, and farmhouse sink. A breakfast nook overlooks the pool. Adjacent is a formal dining and living room, with another fireplace, this one of white stone. The first floor office contains a wall of built-in bookcases, where it’s difficult to work when a patio beckons to the outdoor kitchen and dining area. Along side the office is a newly installed putting green to practice your game.
Follow the winding staircase, with its soaring cathedral ceiling and massive chandelier. Take a left and prepare to sigh upon entering the master bedroom and en suite bath, bigger than a Manhattan flat: light oak floors, a sitting room facing yet another lovely fireplace. Opening the doors to the patio offers a gorgeous view of a series of mountain peaks, each taller than the other. A walk-in closet holds custom built-ins; the dressing and bath area entrances, with an Oceana soaking tub set in a bay window overlooking a stone waterfall, magnolia trees, and koi pond. On the opposite side of this level is a guest bedroom, with full bath, offering more stunning mountain views. Two more guest rooms lie adjacent, with a jack & jill bath.
The final treasure in this entertainer's haven is the media room. For the movie aficionado, everything is there: perfect insulation, large reclining leather chairs, thick carpets, black-out, custom drapes. But it is more – a multi-functional space holding an oak floor for dancing, a private entrance for screenings, a professional director’s area in the rear of the room. As with the rest of this rare home, nothing is lacking.
