Enter through a regal double-height stone foyer with gilded detailing and a stunning wrought-iron staircase lined with hand-painted Spanish tiles. The 35’ x 25’ grand ballroom—once alive with the sounds of live musicians serenading from the balcony above—is a crown jewel of old-world glamour. The estate offers four expansive bedrooms, each with en-suite baths and space for additional sitting areas or home offices. A charming upstairs loft overlooks the ballroom and can function beautifully as a study or fifth bedroom. Highlights Include: - Iconic 1928 Spanish-Revival architecture - 8 acres of gated, private land - 5,766 sq ft of luxurious living space - Grand ballroom with cathedral ceiling & balcony - Historic designation with Mills Act tax benefits - Curly oak floors, inlaid onyx, artisan tilework, and hand-painted ceilings - Architectural details rarely found in modern construction - Ideal for entertainers, history lovers, or legacy homeowners Rarely does such a majestic estate become available.
