Get ready to be dazzled with the finest in Spanish Style architectural detail! This 1926 gem boasts all the charming details of a classic Spanish Mission. Upon entry through the solid Pecky Cypress door you are greeted by a fabulous living room with an ornate fireplace mantle (containing a natural gas pot belly stove) and beautiful Saltillo tile floors. To the right is one of the most beautiful stairwells in town with graceful arches and original stained glass windows. The adjoining formal dining room has French Doors leading out to the spacious covered loggia. The chef's kitchen is complete with cherry wood cabinetry, Blue Pearl Granite and stainless appliances. The 48'' commercial grade Thermador range has 4 burners plus a griddle and grill with a hood with heat lamps. Off of the Living Room, there is a bright and cheerful sunroom that could be used as a home office or den. There is a full bath downstairs for convenience and a laundry room with newer front loading Maytag washer and dryer. Upstairs, the hardwood continues to the lovely master bedroom that has French Doors opening to a private balcony. There is another good-sized bedroom as well and both have cedar lined closets. A third bedroom is currently set up as a master closet with built-in shelving systems and two closets of its own. The upstairs bath has a clawfoot tub and delightful pedestal sink in the classic style of the 1920s. The loggia is spacious and covered and is complete with a wet bar and plenty of room for seating areas, lounging areas and hammocks. Off the loggia, the property opens up to a storybook garden with a beautiful fountain and meandering garden paths. The garden is lush with specimen trees including stately Royal Palms, a Gumbo Limbo tree, a fascinating Screw Palm, Robellini Palms, numerous Traveler Palms, Ponytail Palms and a Mango tree with delicious fruit. There are also Japanese Ferns, and a grand Staghorn Fern. One path leads to a summer kitchen, complete with a built in FireMagic Grill. The grill is natural gas (no need to ever change the tank) and it also includes a rotisserie attachment and the area is lighted for nighttime entertaining. Another path to the right leads to the hidden orchid garden with a trellis for filtered light. To the left a path leads to a bright freestanding art studio, complete with 220 volt power for a kiln. The beauty of this outdoor space is truly magical!
