About This Home

As of June 2026

A timeless classic, presented to the market for the first time ever since being custom built in 1956, a residence of distinction with stylish mid-century modern design cues, welcome to 1601 Avolencia Drive sited on a truly stunning, captivating 19,000 sq foot lot; a refuge from the city around you. Nestled below the street a brick paver circular driveway leads to a stately double door entry and into a bespoke and unique split-level interior, featuring new interior paint and carpet. A showstopper in its own right the formal living room features stunning vaulted wood clad and beamed ceilings, clearstory windows and a retro-inspired gas fireplace, the sliding door leads to an ensconced private brick laid patio area. The primary suite is set across two levels with the en-suite and closet on one and the bedroom and retreat area on another. Engineered wood flooring is found in the bedroom and retreat, a wall of windows creates a highly unique sense in the retreat area looking over a fenced courtyard with mature plantings and stone pavers. Sitting at the rear of the home the kitchen has updated cabinetry, black granite counters and an electric cooktop. The island with new stylish pendent lighting provides an ideal breakfast eating bar and flows seamlessly into the dining room with travertine tile flooring and another fireplace, original wall paneling is preserved and provides a custom texture element. The large sliding door provide an ideal connection to the backyard and expansive patio. An ideal home office (potential to be used as a 4th bedroom) is located off the kitchen with new carpet, storage closet and a sliding door to the backyard. The guest 1⁄2 bathroom is found off the office. Original flagstone patios and steps lead on to a remarkably manicured and spacious backyard, mature and groomed trees are complimented by the green lawn and lush plantings. The possibilities in a yard of this size are truly limitless. Newer 200 amp electrical panel, newer Lennox HVAC and newer water heater. Homes of such unique style and heritage of ownership are rarely found coupled with an amazing lot mere moments from schools, shopping, St. Jude and the beloved Fullerton Bridle trails.
