"Character home" is used way too often in Little Holmby to describe many properties these days but few are as worthy of this title as this truly romantic Spanish gem. Built in the early 1930's and restored and expanded over the years with a sophisticated European flair, this evocative home delights at every turn with rich hardwood floors, peaked and exposed beam ceilings, vintage tile work, unique exterior murals and volumes of light streaming in from every angle. The attraction starts immediately as you enter through an enclosed, private courtyard perfect for greeting friends or family with a cocktail or opening the home's numerous surrounding French doors to create the perfect indoor/outdoor flow for any party or celebration. The classic entry continues this love affair with painted floor tiles and exposed beam ceiling. The delightful period detail work extends into the step-down living room with its own peak beamed ceiling and stately fireplace and to the adjacent formal dining room with dentil molding with both rooms overlooking the front courtyard. The kitchen satisfies any cook's desires with stainless appliances, multiple prep areas, granite counter tops, and wine cooler. Adding to the ardor for this home, there is a luxurious wood paneled den with deep crown moldings and coffered ceiling and separate game room both with views to exquisite exterior mosaic tile murals. The two downstairs bedrooms are comprised of a large mini-primary with a vintage tile hall bath and a smaller maid's style with attached bath. The upstairs bedrooms, accessible by a grand light filled stairway, include an enchanting primary suite with fireplace , voluminous closet and sumptuous full bath and a secondary cozy family bedroom with its own ensuite bath. The rear of the house opens to a large, tiled patio ready for any outdoor festivity you crave. The garage has been converted to a guest house/office with a bath and is awaiting approval as an ADU. Beyond all its classic and romantic features, the house is mere moments away from the relaxing atmosphere at Holmby park, the world-class shopping at Century City Westfield mall, the glamour of Beverly Hills, the cultural offerings of UCLA/Westwood and allows access to the prestigious, award-winning Warner Avenue grammar school. This is a special home to savor, to love and to embrace with all your heart.
