Fell out of escrow! High in the hills above Riverside is the newer gated community of Victoria Grove. Enter and you're greeted by wide streets and large homes with generous setbacks. This exceptional 5 bed, 5 bath home, plus office (that could be sixth bedroom), is situated at the very end of a cul-de-sac, with neighbors on one side only and spectacular mountain views. Step through the entry and you're immediately struck by the dramatic two-story ceilings and windows in the formal living. A dramatic custom chandelier sets the tone of elegance. To the right of the foyer is the large formal dining room, featuring a second custom chandelier. The chef's kitchen features an expansive granite island, walk-in pantry and loads of cabinet space. Upgraded stainless steel appliances, double ovens and a butler's pantry complete the space. The kitchen is open to the casual dining area and great room, and the oversized windows feature views from every angle. There is a downstairs bedroom with full bath, as well as guest bath. Upstairs features an expansive Master suite, plus 3 more generous sized bedrooms. Victoria Grove features a community pool & spa, two tot lots, baseball diamond, basketball court and sports field. Other amenities include top-rated Lake Matthews Elementary (A California Distinguished School and 2015 Blue Ribbon School), as well as the Lake Matthews Child Development Center, which provides child care services. Close proximity to great shopping and the 91/15 Junction.
