A closer look.

Lovely home on San Cristobal in coveted Forest Hills is a rare gem offering a generous number of updates and special features. The open, airy living room includes a dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace and overlooks the scenic backyard. The chef’s kitchen, equipped with custom cabinets, Miele appliances, and a substantial island, flows into an intimate dining room perfect for hosting. A private, treetop primary suite serves as a serene retreat and includes a beautifully updated bath, while an en-suite back bedroom is thoughtfully separated, making it ideal for guests or as a mother-in-law suite. In fact, each bedroom is separate from the others and has its own dedicated bath. Custom Roman shades in Ferrick Mason fabric accent three bedrooms and a bathroom. Mechanical Updates include: roof 2024, HVAC, electrical, windows, and sewer line. Outside, the home welcomes you with a custom front door and a lovely courtyard. The private, shaded backyard feels like a hidden secret garden, featuring lush landscaping, Little Gem Magnolias, a brick wall fence, and a sprinkler system, complemented by an amazing covered back patio that extends the living space. The brick wall fence provides total privacy while allowing views of majestic tree canopies, one of the cherished beauties of the Forest Hills neighborhood.
