    What's special

    Exceptional opportunity to own a beautifully renovated property featuring two fully independent residences, each thoughtfully designed with high-end finishes, private outdoor space, and separate parking. The front residence offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1,151 square feet of living space, blending timeless architectural character with modern luxury. Original details were carefully preserved during the renovation, including elegant arched entryways, wood trim, and charming architectural accents, while tasteful upgrades such as black-framed windows perfectly complement the home's character. Guests are welcomed by classic Spanish tile front steps and a stunning glass-and-wood entry door. Inside, the chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring luxury stainless steel Forno appliances, quartz countertops, a butler's pantry complete with wine refrigerator and additional cabinetry, and abundant workspace for entertaining and everyday living. The inviting living room showcases a fireplace flanked by custom built-in cabinetry. The spacious primary suite features a spa-inspired bathroom with designer tile accents, dual vanities, and a luxurious rainfall shower. The detached rear residence offers 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, and 426 square feet of beautifully updated living space with a full kitchen, private yard area, in-unit laundry, and dedicated off-street parking—ideal for guests, extended family, or rental income potential. Both homes feature luxury engineered hardwood floors throughout, designer finishes, quartz countertops, mini-split heating and air conditioning systems, full kitchens, and beautifully renovated bathrooms. Each residence enjoys its own private patio and yard space, creating a rare sense of privacy and independence. Additional amenities include a one-car garage, carport, and separate laundry room for the front residence, along with low-maintenance turf landscaping in both yards, providing year-round greenery without the need for mowing or watering. A rare turnkey property where modern luxury, thoughtful design, and preserved architectural charm come together beautifully.
