1913 custom craftsman estate with adjacent guest house and expansive grounds. Purchased by the current owners in 1998, one of whom is an architect, who painstakingly rebuilt the property in the craftsman style. The first phase was to remove two additions added in the 70’s and to then expand the original 2 bedroom 1 bath home to the current 4 bedroom 3 bath two story home keeping with the original craftsman style.
A detached guesthouse built by the original owner, Frank R. Buttolph, for his mother, expands the number of bedrooms and baths to 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If not used as living quarters, the guest home is close to the pool and can be used as a bathroom for pool guests.
A new very large custom garage was added along with a pool and spa next to a custom outdoor kitchen and bar along with a covered seating areas behind which is a 3 hole putting green. The property includes several fruit trees to include two varieties of lemons, kumquat, orange and several avocado trees.
The property includes solar panels.
The tenant is responsible for paying all utilities. The owners report the average utilities cost approximately $250 per month for water, $300 a month for electricity, $40 a month for gas and $57 a month for trash.
The owners have left much of the home furnished but are willing to remove what is not wanted by prospective tenants.
