Single Family Residence in Covina, CA

Nestled high in the exclusive hills where San Dimas meets Covina, this beautiful, move-in ready home is a living work of art! Built in 1956 by legendary local artist Jim Maul (the creative force behind the iconic Ragged Point Inn, Covina Library, and San Dimas Civic Center), this single-story-mid-century masterpiece has been reborn w/over $550,000 in meticulous upgrades over the last two years. From the moment you drive through the new, automatic gates & eight foot privacy walls onto your own private road you'll be amazed at the views, beautiful trees, a wonderful flat lot plus an amazing home & backyard! Step inside to the soaring wood beams that float above an open floor plan drenched in golden Southern California light pouring through the floor to ceiling windows. Every window frames sweeping views of the resort-style backyard and rolling hills beyond. The heart of the home is the chef's kitchen that belongs in magazines: custom built cabinetry, dramatic quartz waterfall island, dual farmhouse sinks, commercial pot filler & a 48-inch professional range. The primary suite is amazing - with a walk-in closet rivaling Rodeo Drive and a spa bathroom that makes you feel like you're on a permanent vacation. Step outside and prepare to really fall in love. Over $200,000 transformed the backyard into a literal resort: Oversized 10 foot pool, 1,500 sq ft of pavers beneath a massive custom patio cover, a U-shaped outdoor kitchen loaded w/pro-grade Coyote appliances, 36-inch built in grill, power burner, 40-inch flat-top griddle, bar sink, even a dedicated pizza station and oven. Overhead is recessed lighting, marine grade speakers, a 50-inch outdoor TV, and remote controlled ceiling fan. Tucked poolside is another treat - a 400+ sq ft detached studio w/AC, plumbing and luxury fixtures. Currently a high-end hair salon it could convert to a private gym, pool cabana w/changing room, guest suite - all with its own separate entrance. Every major system is brand new: roofing, a 400 amp electrical panel, complete repipe, tankless water heater, ductless zone controlled HVAC system (only cools/heats the rooms you want) and fresh interior paint. Welcome home - where mid-century soul meets over-the-top modern luxury. When you see this home in person, you'll understand why some properties are simply priceless. This is resort living, every single day! PLUS, the 55,556 sq ft lot next door is for sale for $599,000. Owners may negotiate a bit if both properties are sold together.
