“I’ve got two tickets to paradise,won’t you pack your bags;we’ll leave tonight”. Eddie Money must have been sailing around Westlake Lake when he dreamed  those words,then stopped right at the dock of 4154 La Venta Drive.“Got a surprise for you”.With palm trees swaying and the sun glistening off the pool,you will think that you have landed in paradise.Step off the boat,then look to the right,where two Adirondack chairs invite guests to soak up the view:two swans gliding by,their baby scurrying behind.The ample pebble tech deck,with pool,spa,and outdoor grilling area makes one realize that yes,we are only in this world once,so let’s make the most of every minute!Inside,the floors of the living & kitchen areas are travertine,as well as the stunning floor-to-ceiling fireplace,that opens to both the dining and living rooms.Equally striking is the dazzling lighting fixture over the dining table,which is a beacon to any passing boats at night.The adjacent island kitchen has room for half a dozen cooks ready to hone their talents on the 6-burner Viking stove and oven.Custom cabinets and pantry,Sub-Zero fridge and  the sink facing the water,makes this a chef’s delight!The owners recently added an elegant bar in the great room,with a sweeping granite counter and stools facing the pool;what a spot to catch the Super Bowl!Ceilings are vaulted and open-beamed;the front door,with cut-crystal inserts opens to a cul-de-sac,with plenty of parking.The well-designed library/media room,with dark wooden floors looks onto an atrium that has a charming Italian fountain and ancient urns,filled with succulents.The opposite side of this level holds a large guest room,full bath with shower and laundry room.A gorgeous staircase leads to the second level,which houses two guest bedrooms,one with en suite bath and walk-in closet.The master suite is where the Zen moment beckons:vaulted ceilings,a sitting area with stone fireplace,deck overlooking the water,massive soaking tub,shower/steam shower combination and a custom walk-in closet.An evening contemplating the flickering firelight,or grinning at the egrets skittering across the water can easily be your day’s meditation.As many Zen masters have said,living authentically,becoming fully aware,makes each instant of one’s life a peak experience.Each moment has peace and clarity.This is what can happen in this home,on this serene island.”We’ve waited so long,waited so long”.Your wait is over.
