IHOTW-17-Robledo-Dr

You know Los Arboles? That seriously gated community off Forest Lane, snuggled in between Preston and Hillcrest, dripping with lakes, waterfalls, and some of the most manicured landscaping in town? Inside those pearly gates you find some amazing properties that are little known because, well, they are behind gates!

But you would never imagine a whole 1.24 acre estate lurking behind all that security! Let me tell you, there’s gold behind those walls! Like the most elegant of them all, 17 Robledo Drive. This 9033 square foot pup is an elegant, sprawling English manor style estate with five bedrooms, seven full and one-half baths, a full gourmet kitchen, a great room with gorgeous custom beams, a complete guest suite with separate access from the home, plus a library, a fitness room, an elevator to save mom’s tennis knees, a four car garage to house the Lamborghinis and a porte cochere for guests. You get this plus a backyard that rivals the Four Seasons with pool, spa, fireplace, covered entertaining porch with grill AND a tennis court. All of this and the grounds overlook a beautiful lake with water features, and sounds.

Built in 1995, the home has a Santa Barbara-like feel from the moment you step in. I love the fireplaces — there are five, total —  in the dining room and kitchen, especially in the kitchen breakfast room which just warms up the room on a gloomy rainy Thursday or a cold February morning.  That pillow-cut tile on the floors also evokes the elegant but casual feel. You know what else I love about this house? The pop of chartreuse green (one of my favorite colors) in the kitchen, which is beautiful, updated and loaded. That color just screams “crunch Granny Smith apples”!

The home is huge. There is a first floor exercise room, a game room, a guest suite with it’s own access, and a covered outdoor pavillion out behind the pool, next to the tennis court, with fireplace # five.

I also love the shape of the pool — very unique. What would you call that?  Half-clover? All I know is this house is in impeccable shape, and far from the maddening crowds at $4,495,000. Just came on the market in late March with Dennie Pitzer of Allie Beth Allman & Associates. If you love security, privacy, elegant living and having a total resort in your back-yard, let the good folks at Inwood Mortgage serve up a loan for you. It will be a jumbo, easy to get, and serviced by the unparalleled customer service you at get at Inwood National Bank. You know how I feel about the big banks (gag). Life is too short to be put on eterna-hold: we have tennis games to play! Head to Inwood National Bank… then take mom for a spin by her best Mother’s Day gift ever!17-Robledo-Dr-foyer
