Perched above the canopy, with sweeping views and a remarkable sense of privacy, this four-bedroom, three-bath home unfolds across more than 3,400 square feet of soaring volume, natural light, and beautifully scaled spaces. The main level is where the house truly comes alive. An expansive living room and formal dining room flow directly onto the incredible deck, blurring the line between indoors and out and creating a spectacular setting for everything from intimate dinners to evenings filled with friends. High above the treetops, the view becomes the backdrop to daily life. The kitchen has the presence to match: a Thermador gas range, generous expanses of workspace, walk-in pantry, and skylight overhead. It’s substantial without feeling imposing—the kind of kitchen that invites people to linger. Downstairs, the primary suite feels secluded from the rest of the world. Generously proportioned and oriented toward the view, it pairs an enormous walk-in closet with a spa-like bath designed for lingering. Quiet, private, and indulgent, it feels less like a bedroom and more like a retreat. And then there are the luxuries that reveal themselves slowly: extraordinary closet and storage space, a substantial laundry room, and a large two-car garage with direct interior access. 6577 Glen Oaks has that rare combination of expansiveness and intimacy—room to fill the house with people when you want them close, and enough private corners to vanish when you don’t.
