Detached from the main house, but just across the front courtyard entry, is your very own decked-out, in-home recording studio with its own separate entrance, fully isolated sound proof control and live room, cabling pathways custom-built under the floor that come up right next to the patch bay, and double doored entrances with thick hardwood for extra sound proofing. Record up to a four-piece band in your live room, or use it as a separate lounge area for guests complete with a full bath and room for a kitchenette. Your visitors will love their incredible and luxurious hotel guest suites on the lower level, sequestered for privacy each with their own remodeled baths. The guest rooms flow through Fleetwood sliders to their own private lounge areas with greenery and outstanding views. The formal dining room doubles as a billiard room, with its custom built-in bar that features glass walls capturing the incredible view. It is located right off the family room with soaring ceilings and a custom stone fireplace all flowing through Fleetwood sliders to the sky deck. Behind the super clean chef's kitchen with stainless appliances and quartz counters, there's an impressive breakfast area and a staff hallway with storage leading to a lower-level bedroom with a closet and half bath. You can take the back stairs up to the great mezzanine level that has a living area and luxurious hidden guest suite. On the upper level, there's a show-stopping primary retreat with a double door entry, walk-in closet, separate office with built-ins, spacious sleeping area with a sitting area and stone fireplace, all facing dead-on views of the mountains and incredible sunsets. Just outside the primary suite, there's a second office or nursery with a remodeled bathroom across the hall and hallway access to the attached garage set up as a state-of-the-art gym, complete with laundry room for towel services and storage.
