About This Home

As of March 2025

Welcome to a timeless masterpiece of Spanish Territorial Revival, meticulously crafted and built in Sam Hughes in 1933 and its original splendor. This elegant home greets you with a stunning entry porch adorned with graceful archways and original scored concrete, setting the tone for the charm that lies within. The historic residence boasts restored steel casement windows, now retrofitted with dual pane thermal glass inserts, which complement the coved ceilings and the beautifully preserved tiled fireplace with original working gas fireplace insert, authentic art deco light fixtures, and pristine white oak floors. These classic elements blend seamlessly with modern updates, creating a residence that is both historically rich and refreshingly contemporary.
