Beautifully restored and bursting with distinct Spanish Colonial character, this tightly held Sierra Madre abode is one you’ll be proud to call your own! Built in 1933, this historical landmark was revitalized to its original and timeless glory while adapting to a more modern lifestyle. Set on a large corner lot, a verdant courtyard ideal for a play structure or a secluded seating area welcomes you to this magnificent residence. Step inside and discover a stately 2-story foyer clad in high-end finishes, including a fusion of Spanish multi-color magnesite flooring, crisp white tones, an elegant chandelier, and an intricate wrought-iron stair rail. Archways usher you into the grand room that features a period-appropriate built-in entertainment unit and a regal fireplace that radiates warmth as you receive guests. Soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams and Corbels span overhead, anchored by an eye-catching 10-ft crested stained glass window. French doors provide access to the covered patio. Working from home is made even better in the private office surrounded by multiple windows adorned with plantation shutters. Rich hardwoods pair with detailed dentil molding to elevate your fine dining experience in the chandelier-lit dining room where expansive bi-fold doors frame sensational views of the resort-like backyard. Explore the chef’s kitchen that highlights an oversized, wood-topped 4-seater island with a built-in microwave and refrigerator drawers. A suite of designer stainless steel appliances will please the avid cook, including a 5-burner La Cornue range, a chimney hood, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. Gorgeous shaker-style cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a subway tile backsplash are contrasted by floating wood shelves. Sweeping vistas of the San Gabriel Mountains await in the generously sized bedrooms that treat you to large closets, balcony access, and tastefully tiled ensuites. An opulent primary retreat revels in its own balcony overlooking the incredible city lights, a well-sized walk-in closet, and a luxe 5-piece ensuite that offers a spa-like experience with its steam shower and soaking tub.
