Description

Welcome to Castle Court Drive, a truly one-of-a-kind mountain-top residence offering panoramic views overlooking Lakeside and the surrounding countryside. Perched at elevation, this exceptional property captures sweeping vistas from nearly every room, with abundant windows designed to frame the scenery from all angles. The home has been thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained by the original owner, featuring new countertops, updated appliances, a new HVAC system, solar power system, brand-new roof, and new windows throughout. The attached and detached structures are equally impressive, including a permitted, detached tri-level 3-car garage with workshop space below and attic storage above, offering approximately 6-foot ceilings in both the shop and attic areas. The garage itself features six picture-frame windows showcasing remarkable views. The main level offers an open floor plan with a wood-burning fireplace anchoring the living room and a well-appointed kitchen with stainless steel appliances. A striking picture-frame window highlights the stairway leading to the upper level, where a guest bedroom and the primary suite are located. The primary suite features windows on multiple sides and direct access to a wraparound deck ideal for enjoying sunrise and sunset views. The lower level includes a den, an additional guest bedroom, and access to another wraparound porch, creating flexible living and entertaining spaces throughout the home. Outdoors, the property is beautifully landscaped and fully chain-link fenced, featuring multiple fire pits and extensive lighting throughout the grounds. The exterior lighting system includes solar-powered fixtures and photocell-controlled illumination that activates at dusk, creating an inviting ambiance in the evening while showcasing city lights below. Located near schools and shopping, the property also offers direct access to nature. The rear of the home backs to the Whitaker property, now a public preserve, providing immediate access to hiking trails directly from the backyard (private access key). This is a rare opportunity to own a distinctive mountain-top home offering privacy, views, and functionality in a truly special setting.
