About This Home
As of May 2025Enchanting Craftsman Retreat in Lomita. Step into a sanctuary of warmth, charm, and serenity—this original Craftsman home is more than just a property; it’s an experience. Nestled on a generous 7,500+ sq. ft. lot, this beautifully maintained property feels like a hidden retreat, offering an unparalleled sense of peace and tranquility. The main residence is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath beauty, featuring a welcoming front porch entrance with a solid oak door, stunning maple hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and built-in speakers for an immersive ambiance. Skylights flood the space with natural light, illuminating the granite countertops in the kitchen. A brand-new roof, along with numerous other thoughtful upgrades, enhances the home's timeless appeal. A second private porch off the primary bedroom invites moments of quiet reflection. An additional detached studio offers vaulted ceilings, wood floors, and a private back deck—ideal for use as an in-law quarters, guest space, or creative retreat. At the rear of the property, a cozy third structure with a front patio provides the perfect space for a home office, art studio, or meditation nook. The lush, expansive grounds are adorned with magnificent trees, including a 100-year-old oak, a majestic magnolia, banana trees, bamboo, and more. Adding to the home's one-of-a-kind character, a custom-built outdoor catio tunnel winds through the property, creating a whimsical, pet-friendly oasis.This is a rare and extraordinary property that will take your breath away—a home with soul, beauty, and an unmistakable feeling of joy.
