Prime Windsor Square 3 bed/3.5 bath contemporary that stylistically stands apart--defined by banks of tall windows and vertical planes of smooth-coat stucco, set behind a mature hedge--a private and elegant retreat two blocks from buzzy Larchmont Blvd. Inside, high ceilings, wide-plank bleached oak floors, generous windows and multiple skylights suffuse the home with natural light and a relaxed feel. The generously scaled open living room, dining room and sleek white kitchen encourage gatherings large and small. Kitchen features top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances and well-tended raised garden beds just outside--with bonus points for its close proximity to the beloved twice weekly farmers market. A skylight-lit center hall connects all 3 bedrooms--each with a modern en-suite bath and access to its own outdoor space. The primary suite overlooks the pool and lush tropical landscaping, and offers dual walk-in closets and a spa-worthy bath with soaking tub, large shower and floating double vanity. The family room is where the home really opens up: two walls of retractable floor-to-ceiling sliding doors connect a verdant covered dining pavilion on one side, and a palm-fringed pool on the other. Have a swim. Play records while the sun goes down. Host a Sunday BBQ at the outdoor kitchen--complete with fridge and ice maker--while Birds of Paradise sway in the late afternoon light and the home glows from within.
