A true Spanish-style hacienda, step inside and be transported to a time when homes offered an authenticity from a bygone era. 4 bedrooms/ 2.5 baths with all of the details one would hope for, this home harkens back to the Spanish estates of old Hollywood. In fact, it is rumored to have been built by Jean Harlow as a gift for her parents, though they never had the opportunity to live in it. Situated on a vast 7308 square foot lot behind privacy gates and extensive hedges, the home was originally built in 1929 and has been lovingly maintained and restored. Stroll through the exterior courtyard and be impressed by the traditional design details awaiting you inside: Spanish tile and hardwood flooring, carved archways, thick adobe walls, high ceilings, and an original stained glass window. A large formal living room boasts high ceilings with exposed wood beams and an oversized fireplace. The formal dining room provides the ideal setting for a banquet or other family gathering. The kitchen and connected sunroom provide a lovely view of the backyard and cater to today's busy family: stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry. The backyard is the perfect place for parties as it is completely surrounded by privacy hedges and trees. You will find an idyllic swimming pool/hot tub, an outdoor sitting area and dining area, and an outdoor kitchen with BBQ. There is also a converted garage containing gym space and additional storage. The front and back yards also contain beautiful lemon, lime and fig trees with harvests each year. Up the dramatic curved staircase are the family sleeping quarters. Each bedroom is large with ample closets. The stunning primary bedroom overlooks the backyard and offers a massive walk-in closet, an attached en-suite bathroom with a sunken tub, walk-in shower and a dual sink vanity. Two additional bedrooms with a jack-and-jill bathroom and large closets for each finish out the upstairs, along with laundry facilities and a balcony off of the front guest room with a view of the front courtyard. Additional updates include all-new windows on both floors and new French doors on the sunroom and living room. Located near the Griffin Club and the shops/restaurants/schools of Cheviot Hill, this is a superior house that deserves your attention.
