Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street north of Montana Avenue, and even north of Carlyle, lies a rare Spanish Revival home that tells a story nearly a century in the making. Originally built in 1926, this residence is more than a home it's a work of art lovingly… Read More brought back to life. In 2014, it underwent a meticulous restoration, not just to preserve its historic soul, but to prepare it for the century ahead. Every decision was made with care: steel reinforcements and foundational upgrades allow the home to stand strong against earthquakes up to 7.6 in magnitude, while eco-conscious features like a water return system protect the land it rests on. Step inside and you're transported. Light pours into the dramatic living room through original 1926 windows, arching toward a soaring barrel-vaulted ceiling. Oak hardwood floors carry you from room to room, whispering stories of the past. The kitchens and baths are finished in elegant Carrara marble, with fixtures and materials chosen to reflect the colors, textures, and techniques of the home's original era. But this is no relic. Every system - electrical, plumbing, sewer - was rebuilt with modern standards in mind, including buried electrical lines, fiber optic internet, two tankless water heaters, and zoned HVAC (three in the main house, two in the guesthouse). The integrity of the past meets the innovation of today. The main residence spans approximately 2,851 square feet with four bedrooms and three baths. A separate, beautifully designed two-story guesthouse offers 738 square feet with one bedroom, one and a half baths, a full kitchen and living area, and a generous 18.5' x 18' garage. As the home approaches its 100th birthday in 2026, it stands stronger and more stunning than ever - a perfect blend of heritage and forward-thinking design. This is a place where the beauty of the past meets the promise of the future. A home built not just to admire, but to live in, to grow in, and to treasure for generations to come. Read Less
