The modern-style kitchen is open to the secondary living space and dining room, with custom dual-pane floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing the backyard, perfect for entertaining guests with spectacular city and mountain views. With five total bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a sliding door to the backyard and a walk-in closet, this Eichler provides plenty of space and inspiration. Family-owned by one of A. Quincy Jones’ associate architects, this house and lot was handpicked and is presented for the first time on the market.
