Located in Santa Monica’s coveted north-of-Wilshire neighborhood, this Spanish colonial sits at the intersection of old-world charm and contemporary sensibility. The main house is traditional in its layout and generous in its proportions, offering four spacious bedrooms, three bathrooms, and natural light throughout. At the front of the house, the living room centers around a clean, understated gas fireplace, with a formal dining or music room that easily extends the gathering. The open kitchen is warm and inviting, with plenty of room for cooking and entertaining. Toward the rear of the house, a large den with French doors opens to a spacious backyard framed by regal Cypress trees. The backyard, shaded and private, unfolds into its own world. This expansive yard offers a large patio, open lawn, detached 2-car garage, and a guest house with a three-quarter bath. And for families with young explorers, a treehouse sits nestled in one of two mature Ficus trees. Located within the Franklin Elementary and Lincoln Middle School districts, the home is just moments from Brentwood Country Mart, Erewhon, Whole Foods, Bristol Farms, the soon-to-open Gelson’s, Trader Joe’s, and the shops and restaurants along Montana Avenue and San Vicente.
