They created the most remarkable residence on their block. Honoring their home's storied past, the original porte-cochère remains while a clear nod to modernism is created with a smooth stucco finish and architectural overhangs, successfully blending the old and the new. Anchored by dark grey concrete floors the first level contains a dining room that looks out to the front porch shaded by a beautiful Jacaranda tree, a living room with a re-lined fireplace featuring a black Basalt tile hearth, a media room, a bedroom (currently used as an office), and a kitchen where indoor/outdoor living is created by hand-crafted multi-sliding pocket doors opening up to the garden with a salt water pool. A Lambert et Fils chandelier decorates the stairwell leading to the second floor where 3 bedrooms are located. While all the bedrooms open up to wood decks, the master (with a dressing room and a luxurious spa-like shower) captures the lush green scenery from their historic tree-lined street.
