Located in prime Verdugo Woodlands on a quiet country road with tall trees, this extraordinary c1931 Spanish Colonial estate is a modern-day dream home and a sublime restoration for the ages. Turreted entry with hand crafted front door and stained glass leads to embassy-sized living room with huge picture window, grand fireplace and French doors leading to a stunning colonnade and private walled courtyard. Gorgeous formal dining room with coved ceiling leads to brand new chic and stylish sunny chef's kitchen with island seating, glass-door sub-zero refrigerator, lemon-colored Bertazzoni range with custom hood plus separate spacious breakfast room with built-in seating; all overlooking the grassy yard and brand-new pool and spa. Next to the kitchen are laundry room with service entrance, two guest bedrooms that share a newly tiled bath and a powder room. Magnificent staircase leads upstairs to three spacious full suites: including restored vintage baths with original tile, formal balconies, walk-in closets and built-ins. Entertain al-fresco on patios and semi-enclosed courtyards, refresh in the swimmer's pool/spa, and enjoy the huge grassy yard that envelops the home. System updates include brand new roof topped with original clay tiles; and new HVAC for comfort. Original hardwood floors, arches, ironwork, California basement, built-ins and stunning original interior fountain are just a few of the vintage hallmarks. 3-car garage with new vintage style automatic doors is almost too beautiful to park inside. Blocks to the Oakmont Country Club and Catalina Verdugo Adobe. An exceptional architectural masterpiece offering a relaxed and comfortable lifestyle!
