Welcome to this four bedroom, three bath historic 1919 Craftsman revival impeccably done with exquisite finishes. Designed by renowned architect Edward B. Rust, the home invites you in with an elegant foyer that leads into the light-filled open floor plan. The downstairs is wrapped in windows and includes a spacious living room with a Batchelder style fireplace, a stately dining room with a fireplace all its own, a family room with custom built-ins, and a sun dappled, beautifully remodeled kitchen that includes thick solid-surface counters, high-end stainless appliances and a central eating area. The sunlit upper floor has a primary suite has a large walk-in closet and a spa-like bath that creates the feeling of being at a high-end resort. Three additional bedrooms, as well as a central hall bath, sit upstairs including a charming back bedroom with an adjoining sitting area. They all look out at the tree top views below as well as a picturesque garden that is dotted with shaded seating areas that are perfect for relaxing or entertaining friends under the stars. The expansive patio abuts a verdant lawn that showcases the park-like backyard with sweeping views of our glorious San Gabriel mountains. In addition, there is a hidden, private patio with a newer hot tub as well as an outdoor shower. Numerous upgrades and period details abound including hardwood floors, deep crown moldings, beautiful fixtures, and a grand staircase. This is a magnificent estate property in one of our finest neighborhoods.
