Spectacular Craftsman home in the heart of a vibrant Venice neighborhood offers inviting living spaces and seclusion by lush landscaping reminiscent of a tropical oasis. Designed by acclaimed architect Richard Olander, this light-filled residence spans 2,801 square-feet and includes a versatile guest house and detached 2-car garage with built-in storage. Secured behind a gated entry, the home's interiors were completely renovated while keeping the original Craftsman character intact, with features like charming built-ins, coved ceilings and rich millwork. Ideally proportioned for effortless entertaining, the main level flows between a formal living room and the kitchen that opens to both the dining and family rooms. The stylish, gourmet kitchen includes a seated island, stone countertops, and top-tier appliances like the Kitchenaid double oven range and a built-in beverage fridge. The residence has 3-bedrooms in the main home, with two downstairs between a jack-and-jill bath and the upstairs primary suite. The private, upstairs primary suite is set beneath high vaulted ceilings with space for a sitting area, an expansive walk-in closet, and a luxurious spa-like bath with marble tile, soaking tub and separate shower. The enchanting garden is a pristinely manicured tropical haven with meandering stone pathways leading to a wooden deck with an outdoor gas fireplace, full outdoor kitchen, turf lawn, outdoor shower, and an area wired for movie night under the stars! From the backyard, access the detached guest house with a living room, murphy bed and full bath, offering a versatile space for a multitude of uses. Experience quintessential California coastal living in a highly sought-after location within minutes of premier shopping and dining along Abbot Kinney Blvd, the Venice Canals, and the surf, sand and bustling boardwalk of Venice Beach.
