2417 Hancock Drive

With its warm Mediterranean character and inviting courtyard entrance, this single-level home brings a touch of old-world Verona to a comfortable, easygoing floor plan. The front of the property enjoys an open outlook across the rolling hills, creating a wonderful sense of space as you arrive. The 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence offers 2,412 square feet of living space, generous outdoor areas, wide paver side-yard parking, and paid solar. A scrolled iron gate opens to a private courtyard and the front entrance, setting the tone for the home within. Rich, hardwood floors begin at the entry, where a reception room provides a welcoming space just off the foyer. On the opposite side is convenient interior access to the garage and a spacious laundry. The heart of the home is the expansive open living area, where the kitchen, dining, and living spaces come together in one comfortable great room with ceiling fans and direct access to the covered patio. The kitchen centers around a large island topped with beautiful pale, softly veined granite and generous counter seating. Extensive cabinetry and seemingly endless counter space provide plenty of room to work, while built-in double ovens, a gas cooktop, built-in microwave, and an exceptionally large walk-in pantry add excellent function and storage. The spacious primary suite includes an oversized walk-in closet and a spa-like bath with a soaking tub and separate walk-in stall shower. Outside, the Mediterranean influence continues with a relaxed mix of colorful landscaping. A deep, covered patio with handsome pavers and elegant columns provides a wonderfully shaded outdoor living area, ideal for dining, entertaining, or simply escaping the afternoon sun. A peaceful pond with a waterfall trickles beneath the branches of a mature weeping Blue Atlas cedar. Three beautiful, mature koi glide through the pond, adding life and color to this quiet corner of the garden. Bougainvillea, citrus trees, and palms highlight the yard while the spacious side yard accommodates two generous raised planting beds. The location adds another layer of everyday convenience, with easy access to major freeway arteries and public transportation for commuters, along with the advantage of a highly regarded school district. With its single-level design, open living spaces, paid solar, generous parking, inviting gardens, and distinctive Mediterranean details, this is a home that combines character with practical, comfortable living.
