About This Home

As of August 2021

Perched up on a lovely corner lot on “sought after” Beech Avenue--a street known for its exquisite canopy of shady trees--is a classic 1927 Old Spanish home. Even before you enter the home there is a large terra-cotta tiled patio surrounded by trees for privacy. The turret entrance with original wood door opens to the foyer featuring beautiful wood floors. The home has an easy flow and original charm. Spacious rooms throughout, all with lovely coved ceilings. The inviting living room has plenty of windows and a beautiful wood burning fireplace with antique sconces. Centrally located formal dining room with easy access to the kitchen. The sunny kitchen has a bay window, beautiful wood cabinets, granite counters and a nice storage/pantry room all adjacent to the chill breakfast nook looking out over the street. The hall bath is tiled and includes a double sink vanity and separate bathtub/shower. The master suite is large and opens out to the back patio area. The master bath has a tiled shower with a seamless glass door. Rear private patio with fireplace and covered canopy great for outdoor dining and relaxing. Mature landscaping. Clay tile roof, two car garage with easy in/out access to the house.
Character and charm are at its best in this nostalgic 1927 Spanish.
