Originally built in the 1920s, this thoughtfully reimagined California Spanish residence balances architectural integrity with a comprehensive, design-forward renovation. Behind its timeless facade, virtually every major system has been modernized, including new electrical and plumbing, a new roof and gutters, HVAC, EV charging, integrated security, and carefully considered structural improvements that enhance both flow and function.The approximately three-bedroom, two-bath home unfolds through a series of warm, light-filled spaces defined by original character and restrained contemporary detailing. Wide-plank oak floors, new windows, recessed lighting, and a palette of natural materials create a quiet sense of refinement throughout. The living room, anchored by its original vaulted beamed ceiling, flows through graceful archways into a formal dining room with custom built-ins before opening to a beautifully executed kitchen.Designed as both a workspace and gathering place, the kitchen features marble countertops, custom cabinetry, designer tile, a sculptural plaster range hood, premium appliances, and an open floor plan achieved through thoughtful structural engineering. Just beyond, a flexible family room offers the flexibility to be converted back to its original third-bedroom layout with an en suite bath.The primary bath has been entirely reconfigured as a spa-like retreat, complete with a steam shower, soaking tub, and custom oak double vanity. Every intervention throughout the home reflects an emphasis on craftsmanship, proportion, and livability rather than trend.French doors extend the living spaces into an oversized, professionally landscaped backyard, where mature greenery creates an atmosphere of privacy and ease. The finished garage, enhanced with epoxy flooring, extensive built-in storage, and a full-height glass sliding door, functions effortlessly as a studio, office, fitness space, or guest retreat.Located just moments from Santa Monica's celebrated restaurants, boutiques, parks, and beaches. It is a residence that honors the enduring appeal of Southern California Spanish architecture while embracing the comfort, precision, and understated luxury of contemporary living.
