About This Home

As of November 2020

Casa Encinal is situated on over 10 acres extending from the road to the hilltop overlooking Hondo Canyon & Topanga Meadows. It is bounded by Old Topanga Creek along the road, by Fossil Creek on its north side, & Park to the west. The property is private & serene with expansive views & room for a pool. Completed in 1989, this magnificent home was inspired by the architecture of traditional Spanish haciendas, with large timbers, high ceilings, & overhanging rooflines. A Mexican tile roof & thick plastered walls insulate the interior. The front door is hand-carved & the large beams throughout the home are complimented by the use of other rich woods. The cabinetry in kitchen & bathrooms is made of Honduran mahogany while the hardwood floors are Brazilian cherry. The kitchen & baths display an extensive use of handmade tiles. A paneled inglenook off the living room provides a cozy area for sitting around the fireplace & French doors open to a tile patio with fountain & a wisteria pergola.
