About This Home
As of June 2022Extraordinary! Located on an extremely private cul-de-sac in the heart of Original Friendly Hills, this absolutely elegant, custom-built, Old English Tudor style home was designed and fashioned with grace and charm. Step back into another era of aristocratic lifestyle and enjoy this amazing home and property and its beautifully maintained lawns and gardens. Many architectural details originate from England; brought to Whittier and handset into place for an authentic look and feel. Enjoy the warmth of the elegant fireplace in the formal living room with highly polished wood flooring, gaze out to the rose garden through the leaded glass windows, and enjoy a book from your private library. Pass through the fabulous stone-framed doorway and into the formal dining room where you can entertain friends and family and gather for elegant meals and conversation in this room that features a magnificent built-in china display hutch, beautiful windows and a passage door to the rear patio and gardens. The Pub Room with peg & groove wood flooring and a strong beam ceiling is the absolutely splendid spot for late night conversations at the bar, throwing darts or just enjoying spending time with friends. Two spacious bedrooms are located in the South Wing and a 3rd bedroom is located in the North Wing- a clever allocation of space and distance. The kitchen is intimate and functional and offers all that is required to prepare delicious meals. The garage is finished and enjoys a fine checker board pattern floor. The gardens are extensive with a large lawn for parties and play and there is a freestanding workshop for those who have tools and hobbies! Note: Paving stone circle driveway, beautifully landscaped, cul-de-sac street.
