In 1936 the original owners of ''La Quinta Tranquilla'' gave their architect inspired instructions that led to this one-of-a-kind Hacienda. ''Visualize the living room as part of a historic California mission. Duplicate the fireplace from the 'early house', Avila Adobe on Olvera Street. Design the arches of the courtyard arcades to look like the ones found at the Mission San Juan Capistrano. Incorporate the gate believed to be from Maximilian's Castle in Mexico City. Build recessed windows in the living room true to the style of the San Fernando Mission. Lay handmade, oversized bricks from Mexico. And intentionally misalign those bricks and purposely distress the walls and arches. With all this in mind, design a house in the early California style.'' Contrasting old-world charm with modern updates, the current owners have completed a thorough restoration and renovation of the entire house with a beautifully remodeled kitchen and bathrooms, upgraded with copper plumbing, electrical, central air and heat, and a ''whole-house'' water filtration system.
