Style and Sophistication, Grace and Elegance. Sometimes perfection just presents itself. You walk in, do a pirouette, softly breathe, click your heels 3 times, close your eyes, and say, “Ahhhh, Toto I think we’re home.” An incredible rebirth awaits your senses in this mesmerizing Spanish residence complete with companion unit. Situated on one of Normal Heights sought after classic wide avenues, this home exudes the Southern California experience. The glamour of a bygone era has been encapsulated and restored in the details. A grand portico, leading through one of the most beautiful etched artistic front doors you might have ever seen, gracefully introduces the world to this gift of living. The floorplan is predominantly original, with some highly sought after contemporary adjustments having been incorporated. This presentation will flutter the heart of the most spiciest of connoisseurs. See Supplement for More Details. The restoration and details are immense so lets just touch on some of the best. You’ll have to come see it in person to get the full experience! The main house is 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and the rental unit adds the remaining bedroom and bath for a total of 4 bedroom and 3 baths. Architecture: The vintage Spanish is alive and well. The original Oak flooring has been restored. The living room barrel ceiling is a showstopper and highlights the grandeur design of yesteryear. Grand transitions greet all areas and the new archway entering the kitchen is inspiring. The exterior stucco is pristine, accented with awnings paying homage to the history and the landscape beckons all visitors. Kitchen: Breathtaking yet functional, the kitchen meets all your desires and is the heart of the home. The tile backsplash is a work of art and is set off brilliantly by the Marvel black quartz countertops. Cabinetry abounds and the suite of stainless steel appliances create the right panache. Oh yeah, it’s complete, it’s got the must have pot filler above the range! Baths: The hall bath is just beautiful work of art. Bright, contemporary and clean lines. The tile work is genius. The primary bath is one to behold. Everyone will wish they had this. Like the hall bath, the tile work is art itself. Huge walk-in, glass enclosed shower and a separate soaking tub for those luxurious pampering moments. The dual vanity set up is befitting a 5-star resort and the overall spaciousness and design will leave you relaxed and happy. Second unit/rental: There will be a line of people waiting for this one. The unit has been redone top to bottom. From featuring new LVP flooring for that contemporary flair to a beautiful bath with custom tile details. The kitchen has pure white quartz countertops with its own suite of Whirlpool appliances. Exterior and Structure: The landscape and grounds are self explanatory. The garage is spacious and multiple off-street parking spots are available. Both back bedrooms lead out through French doors into the same great backyard entertainment space. So, all in all, everything looks amazing, but here are some things you can’t see.. There’s all new abs piping sewer line and cleanouts out to the street. The posts and piers under the house have been retrofitted with strapping and a vapor barrier in the crawl space. The windows have been replaced (I know, you can see them, but might not notice). The roof on the back unit is new and the front house tile roof had the tiles removed, underlayment paper replaced and the tiles reinstalled. An electrical line was run out to the rolling front gate, for the possibility of an automatic motor in the future.
