Respectful rehabilitation and an ability to be guided by a long-term vision for the home were the foundation of this renovation. The circular entry with its decorative plasterwork transports you to a time beyond even the 1920’s when this home was built. It resembles the stone walls and walkways of a medieval castle and ignites your imagination every time you step inside. To your left is the dining room with its stunning east wall of wood frame windows.

The kitchen was designed by a lifelong chef and so is not only beautiful but practical as well. It has a dual fuel 6 burner Thor range, secondary prep sink and all the counter and cabinet space you could ask for. The backsplash features sunny yellow field tile with Spanish motif accents and above the range is a depiction of a handmade
