About This Home

As of September 2020

Back on the market. Don’t miss the chance to own one of the most elegant ranch style homes nestled high in the Whittier hills, representing the true essence of California living. Featuring floor to ceiling windows and sliding glass doors throughout, this 4 bedroom, 4-1/2 bathroom home with a
generous finished 2-stall garage, offers 3,500 square feet of living space, a guest room with ensuite bath and private entrance, 1500
square feet of covered patio, custom designed pool, fountains, and ample area for expansion. With a reputation among guests and
craftsmen as a uniquely stylish residence boasting a quaint, cozy atmosphere, this home was built by a contractor and owner of a lumber
company who spared neither expense nor materials in constructing it for comfort as well as permanence. Feel as if you own your own
personal resort the second you step into the backyard. This estate wraps around the pool as the focal point, offering total privacy in
addition to spectacular views of the pool and natural rolling hills from every room. Wake up each morning to awe-inspiring sunrises in the
East and drift off to sleep each night with quietude accentuated by the tranquil sounds of nature. Situated in a friendly community with an
excellent school system, this home lies in close proximity to Whittier College, several award-winning hospitals, multiple shopping centers, and
fine restaurants. A true entertainers’ dream, this rare find in Mar Vista Heights will take your breath away.
