About this home

Privately positioned within a secluded enclave of just two properties, this gated estate offers a distinctive sense of privacy in the exclusive guard-gated community of Shady Canyon. Designed by noted architect Anthony Massaro and built by renowned Rodeo Homes, the custom residence pairs impressive scale with a rare six-bedroom, nine-bath layout offering exceptional flexibility. The primary suite and three additional en suite bedrooms are together on the upper level - an especially rare and desirable configuration. Framed by pastoral canyon and hillside views, the home is thoughtfully designed for year-round alfresco living. A long private drive creates a gracious sense of arrival, leading to a light and airy home where a serene courtyard bathes the interiors in natural light, complementing elegant formal rooms and expansive everyday living spaces. High ceilings, arched openings and generous windows define the home's architectural character. The formal living and dining rooms provide a grand setting for entertaining, while the expansive kitchen and oversized family room create an inviting center for everyday gatherings. French doors effortlessly connect the interiors to the surrounding outdoor spaces. The main level is well considered, offering two en suite bedrooms along with a substantial executive office allowing for guests, multigenerational living and work-from-home needs without compromise. Upstairs, the floor plan becomes even more exceptional. The primary suite is joined by three additional en suite bedrooms creating a true four-bedroom upper level rarely found in Shady Canyon. The primary retreat offers a luxurious bath, private outdoor balcony with views & a sense of separation while remaining close to the secondary bedrooms. A subterranean level adds another dimension to the home, with a large bonus space designed to flex effortlessly between media, recreation, fitness or additional lounge space. Outside, multiple courtyards & garden areas create distinct places to gather, dine and retreat, framed by mature landscaping and the natural beauty of Shady Canyon. Residents of Shady Canyon enjoy an unparalleled lifestyle within one of Orange County's most prestigious guard-gated communities, with access to scenic hiking and biking trails, community parks, tennis and pickleball courts, swimming facility, and close proximity to the private Shady Canyon Golf Club, all just minutes from world-class shopping, dining, beaches & top-rated Irvine schools.
