About This Home
As of May 2025Tucked away on a wonderful interior street in Historic California Heights, this enchanting 1930s Spanish-style villa is full of charm and character. As you approach, the covered entryway draws you in, flanked by charming French doors on the left and a picturesque courtyard on the right. Adding to the home’s inviting appeal, a delightful lending library stands at the entrance to the driveway—offering passersbys the chance to take or leave a book, fostering a true sense of community.
Inside, the living room is warm and welcoming, featuring striking beamed ceilings that beautifully complement the home’s original dark trim. Thoughtfully selected lighting enhances the authentic Spanish character throughout. In a unique touch, the current owners have designed custom wood furniture pieces created by Buena Vista specifically for the home , which may be
included with the sale.
The beautifully remodeled kitchen blends seamlessly with the home’s historic charm, featuring custom cabinetry and classic tile flooring. From the cozy breakfast nook, you’ll enjoy a serene courtyard view, effortlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces.
For those who need a dedicated workspace, gym, or creative retreat, the garage is a dream come true. With sleek finished flooring and a rustic barn door leading to a separate workshop area, this space is both
functional and stylish.
Step outside into the tranquil backyard, where a lovely mature tree provides just the right amount of shade, creating a peaceful sanctuary. With three distinct outdoor gathering spaces, you'll always find the perfect spot to relax, entertain, or simply unwind in the beauty of your surroundings.
This isn’t just a home—it’s a timeless retreat waiting to be cherished.
