About 17 La Costa Ct

Just steps from the Cherry Valley Country Club clubhouse and all its sought-after amenities, 17 La Costa Court enjoys one of the best locations in the community—perfect for those who want to take full advantage of golf, tennis, swimming, dining, and social gatherings just moments from home. When you're not enjoying the country club lifestyle, the home’s lush, professionally landscaped surroundings provide a private backyard retreat designed for quiet relaxation or easy outdoor entertaining. This truly one-of-a-kind residence was custom built for the original owners with thoughtful attention to detail and craftsmanship throughout. From the turreted foyer to the elegant moldings and floor-to-ceiling windows, every room reflects timeless design and exceptional quality. A rare 3-car garage—hard to find in this neighborhood—adds both convenience and value. The home offers over 3,200 square feet of beautifully finished living space on the main and upper levels, plus an additional 1,100 sq ft finished basement with 9' ceilings, newer carpet, and built-in storage. An additional 1,472 sq ft of unfinished space in the basement and a plumbed 840 sq ft attic over the garage offer room to grow or customize further. On the main level, you’ll find rich hardwood floors in a diagonal pattern, dramatic ceiling heights, and elegant living and dining rooms designed for elegant entertaining. The beautifully updated chef’s kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a statement Botticino marble backsplash with hand-crafted medallions, and high-end appliances including an integrated SubZero refrigerator, two Thermador ovens and range, and Bosch dishwasher. The adjoining family room is warm and welcoming with a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and Pella doors to a private brick terrace. The primary suite is tucked away on the main floor for ease and privacy, featuring two walk-in closets and a spacious walk-in bay anchored by a Palladian window—an ideal spot for a cozy seating nook or reading area with garden views. Just beside it, a set of French doors leads directly to the private brick terrace, offering a lovely connection to the outdoors. The en suite bath is equally luxurious with marble flooring, dual vanities, custom cabinetry, a Jacuzzi whirlpool tub, steam shower with built-in seat, and a private room for the commode. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while a sunlit open loft adds flexible space for an office or den with 360-degree views from windows at the front and back of the house. Additional upgrades include a new GAF Timberline roof (2024), a whole-house Generac generator (2024), updated lighting and hardware (2023). A central vacuum system, security, and irrigation add even more ease to everyday living. Beautifully maintained, thoughtfully upgraded, and perfectly positioned—this is a rare opportunity to own one of Cherry Valley's most spectacular homes.
