Meticulously maintained, this Spanish Mediterranean, built circa 1928, radiates with original artistry and extends its living space to an inviting garden courtyard and detached cottage with full bath and kitchenette. Within the main house, enchanting and enduring period elements include rich-and-radiant hardwood flooring, decorative ironwork, and vaulted wood-plank ceilings. Generously proportioned public rooms and a powder room occupy the entry level, while the second floor features two balcony-extended bedrooms and a vintage-sensibility full bath.The interior foyer presents arched portals, a dark-wood elevated ceiling, and a first impression of the iron-balustraded staircase encircling a dramatic two-story chamber. Move down to the expansive sunken living room, rich with elegant earthiness in its combination of wood underfoot and overhead. Natural light emanates from three sides, including the arched picture window that approaches the lofty ceiling, casement windows flanking a stone-clad fireplace and an exterior door that connects to the arcade.Seamlessly connected to the living room, the dining room reiterates the wide-plank flooring and adds dark wood trim and solid-wood-paneled doors with original hardware, which impart sturdy majesty throughout the home. They lead from the dining room to the kitchen as well as the breakfast room, both of which express heirloom characteristics. Within the kitchen, appliances include a showpiece Wedgewood range that gleams with double ovens and gas burners flanking a griddle, and a double-drawer dishwasher by Fisher and Paykel. The breakfast room features a pair of built-in corner hutches and opens to a sprawling terrace of brick and stone. Fringed by tropical, perennial, and treed elements, it forms an abundant, secluded setting for outdoor enjoyment and for the cottage that comprises self-contained living quarters.
