NOT YOUR TYPICAL HOME — AND THAT'S EXACTLY THE POINT. More land. More garage and workshop space. More flexibility. More ways to live, work, create and grow — all in one remarkably unique property.
Inspired by Australia. Crafted for California Living. For buyers who value architecture, craftsmanship, and versatility over tract-home uniformity, this residence offers design and functionality rarely found at this price point.
Reimagined in 2020, this 1956 original was rebuilt from the ground up, blending Australian Farmhouse architecture with modern industrial design. Set around a striking eucalyptus-shaded entertaining patio, the property showcases white Hardie Plank siding, metal roofing, custom fencing, industrial ironwork, and four distinctive dormers—a tribute to the owner's Australian heritage.
The two-story main residence features four bedrooms, three baths, and an open-concept layout highlighted by custom details, a spacious island, sleek kitchen cabinetry, casual dining, and access to gardens and outdoor entertaining.
Designed for flexible and multi-generational living, the home includes a downstairs guest bedroom, hall bath, and private-entry primary suite with ensuite bath, mini-split climate control, and kitchenette-style amenities. Upstairs, a spacious flex suite offers vaulted ceilings, fireplace, walk-in closets, loft space, bath, fourth-bedroom option currently used as office space, and balcony.
Then there are the garages...a place to make GARAGE ENVY. A detached two-car garage offers versatile flex space with bath, laundry, utility sink, and guest-use accommodations. Adjacent is a permitted 1,200-square-foot additional garage/workshop with block construction, high roofline, skylights, concrete tile roof, gated access, worktable lift, and ample space for automotive, recreational vehicles, business, hobbies, or creative pursuits. Two gated driveways provide separate access and exceptional flexibility for the property's garage, workshop and covered parking spaces. A permitted gated two-car carport provides even more covered parking.
Situated on a large corner lot, the property offers exceptional flexibility, expansion potential, and indoor-outdoor living enhanced by mature avocado and fruit trees, raised garden beds, and multiple gathering areas. Some homes are fully understood in photographs. Washington is not one of them. Its hidden assets, spaces and possibilities need to be experienced in person. PRIVATE, APPOINTMENT-ONLY SHOWINGS.
