Beverly Hills, CA 90210 2017 N Benedict Canyon Drive

So much of Los Angeles is experienced primarily from behind an automotive windshield. Driving along winding canyon roads, our thoughts dwell on the ticking clock: "How much longer will it take; how bad is the traffic"? Here in a 4-bedroom, 4-bath Modern residence on Benedict Canyon Drive, expanded and upgraded within the past decade, on a clear night out on the back patio one listens at last to water plash in the fountain. A few birds still call. The canyon reverts to the realm of nature as the cares of mechanized civilization dwindle away with the onset of night. The open plan Living-Dining-Kitchen combination extends to the patio and yard through glass sliding doors. 2-car attached garage opens to a large, gated auto court for easy turn-around. Cook's Kitchen with high-quality modern appliances opens to the dining area and living room. All bedrooms have en suite full baths except the guest/office on the entry level (yet the adjacent 'powder room' is a full bath with shower over bathtub). The primary suite has a private terrace facing the rear yard and fountain. Spa, outdoor kitchen with built-in barbecue and a fountain-cascade added by current owners adorn the lovely rear yard. 15 minutes' drive or less to Rodeo Drive shopping after peak morning traffic hours.
