Step back in time to 1925 with this exquisite Spanish Colonial Revival residence, a truly rare offering that marries historic character with refined modern comforts. Gracefully documented in historical records and maintained in pristine condition, this home stands as a testament to timeless craftsmanship and enduring elegance. Beyond the gated entry, a long winding driveway runs along half the property, revealing a classic red tile roof, beautifully banded windows, and graceful archways that define the home’s distinguished façade. These original arched openings and period windows bathe the interior in abundant natural light, creating an inviting ambience. Inside, spacious bedrooms and generous living areas are adorned with original details that capture the romance of the era. Rich hardwood floors, lovingly preserved, flow throughout the home, while exquisite finishes echo the home’s 1920s heritage. A centerpiece of the living room, the original Batchelder tile fireplace—kept in pristine condition—anchors the space with both artistry and history, offering a rare and treasured focal point. The thoughtful updates blend seamlessly with its vintage soul. Modern amenities, including central air and heating and updated electrical, provide everyday comfort and peace of mind. The kitchen has been tastefully renewed, creating a harmonious balance between old-world charm and contemporary convenience. Set high on an expansive lot of over 26,000 sqft, the residence is enveloped by lush, manicured landscaping that offers both beauty and privacy. Tall hedges encircle the property, creating a secluded sanctuary that feels worlds away. The expansive porches and shimmering pool create an idyllic setting for enjoying the California sun.3 separate entrances off the long driveway enhance both practicality and grandeur, ideal for welcoming guests or accommodating a variety of lifestyles. A detached two-car garage sits quietly to the side, presenting excellent potential for an ADU conversion, should one wish to expand the estate’s living quarters. Additional alley access provides a separate entrance perfectly suited for RV parking or future expansion possibilities. A separate barn structure, rich with character, offers an ideal setting for a workshop/studio, inviting creativity and retreat.
