This 1920s Hancock Park Spanish Villa, reminiscent of a Santa Barbara resort, is California living at its finest. The professionally designed, low-maintenance front garden sets the tone with its organic plantings of breezy acacia trees and silvery-green olives entwined with fragrant herbs and sage bushes. The home's exterior features the original architectural elements of Malibu tiles in coastal earth tones and amber-colored stained glass windows. Welcoming you inside is a grande two-story entryway. To the left is a formal living room with an original beamed ceiling, an inviting fireplace, elegant parquet wood floors, and folding French doors that open to an outside courtyard with two distinct gathering spaces. You can dine al fresco all year round under electric space heaters on the ceramic-tiled dining patio. Or retreat to zen on the side patio with a trickling water fountain, lush bamboo, and a cozy firepit surrounded by built-in seating. Here, you can kick back for movie night or watch the big game on the outdoor TV. Across the courtyard from the living room is the family room, which has a drop-down movie screen and a built-in projector. Behind the family room is a multi-purpose room with a half-bath, perfect for an office/gym or playroom. Unfolding from the family room is a powder room and a large kitchen with multiple workstations, a breakfast area, walk-in pantry, high-end appliances, a butler's pantry, and a wine room. A formal dining room looks out to the tranquil front garden. An additional guest bedroom, office, and full bath complete the first floor. Make your way up the curved staircase, and you will enter a deluxe primary suite with two large walk-in closets, a spa-inspired bathroom with a steam shower, and a soaking tub. A private patio off the main bedroom overlooks the expansive backyard, where a small orchard of fruit trees evokes the romance of a western ranch. Rounding out the upstairs are two bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, a laundry room, and an additional bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. Now let's go out back! Towering ficus and boxwood hedges create an organic and serene enclosure with everything you need to host special events, family gatherings, or enjoy a day in the sun. Relax, take a dip in the saltwater pool and spa, fire up the BBQ in the outdoor kitchen and dining area, or gather around and cook S'mores over the camper's firepit. A guest casita with panoramic, tree-top views and a private patio is lofted above the oversized two-car garage. A rare opportunity to buy a home with so much charm in the historic neighborhood of Hancock Park. Main house is approximately 5,745 sq.ft. and the guest house is approximately 500 sq.ft.
