As of April 2025This lovely property is in a prime San Marino neighborhood known as Poet’s Quarters. Classic Spanish Revival architecture by Wallis Neff includes a tile roof, arched doorways, and thick stucco walls. The home features three spacious bedrooms upstairs, including a large primary suite, one bedroom downstairs, and 3 bathrooms. The main floor includes an inviting entry that opens to a spacious living room, showcasing high wood-beamed ceilings and a warm fireplace situated between two large windows bringing in the morning light. Adjacent to the kitchen is the large formal dining room with wood-beamed ceilings. An additional bonus is the separate guest quarters with a full bath over the four-car garage. A new electrical panel and new heating and air conditioning system as well as earthquake retrofitting upgrades make this property very appealing. Very well maintained and move-in ready, properties as lovely as this are a rare find. Make this beautiful home your new home today.
