About 1382 Via Zurita Street
Set discreetly on Via Zurita Street in the heart of Claremont, this custom residence is part of an intimate, highly sought-after enclave where every home is uniquely designed. With only a handful of properties and a setting that feels quietly removed, even many longtime Claremont residents are unaware this hidden pocket exists. The front of the property is framed by mature greenery, including a stunning redbud tree and a rock water fountain positioned near the entry. Inside, hardwood flooring runs through the main living areas, where the layout opens up from the entry. The living room is accented by a gas fireplace with a wood mantle and extends into a sun-lit den, currently used as a dedicated piano room, offering space for music or creative use. Wood shutters adorn the windows, adding a finished look to both areas. Adjacent to the piano room, the family room was thoughtfully added and serves as an additional gathering space. It features high ceilings, quality built-ins, and its own fireplace. The kitchen is well-sized, with ample cabinetry and large stretches of granite countertop space, with stainless steel appliances, a built-in gas stovetop, a tile backsplash, and recessed lighting. A spacious breakfast nook is within the kitchen for casual meals, while the formal dining room overlooks the backyard patio, including matching wood shutters, and can easily accommodate a dining table for 10-12 people. The home includes five very spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms. The primary suite and two additional bedrooms are located on the main level, with two more bedrooms upstairs. The primary bedroom is set toward the back of the home, with direct access to the yard and views of the outdoor space. The ensuite bathroom includes dual sinks, a walk-in shower with a bench, and a separate soaking tub. The backyard is a defining feature of the property. Two covered patios provide space for seating and outdoor dining. A built-in barbecue and flat top griddle are paired with counter seating for casual meals by the pool. The yard is lined with greenery and a variety of fruit trees, including orange, grapefruit, tangerine, and lemon. A pool and spa sit at the rear of the yard, with fountains that add to the overall setting. Owned solar panels mean enjoying the home for a fraction of typical cost. Rarely do homes become available in this desirable custom-home neighborhood with the size and number of amenities that this home provides.
