Home of the Day: Thousand Oaks estate for the country club set
A dramatic entry hall with a sweeping double staircase and second-floor balcony creates a formal first impression at this Tuscan-style estate behind gates in the Sherwood Country Club. Adding to the rarefied atmosphere is a wood-paneled library with coffered ceilings, a gourmet kitchen and a spacious master suite.
Outdoors, the backyard includes a covered loggia as well as an infinity-edge swimming pool that overlooks nearby Sherwood Lake and the 12th hole of the Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course.
