Property Description: Recently featured in both Coastal Living and House Beautiful, this Spanish Mediterranean gem, built in 1931, was gutted in 2021 and painstakingly updated with every modern convenience (including new roof, new plumbing, new wiring, whole house water filtration system) while preserving its historical gravitas and architectural charm. (The fireplace and its tilework, cathedral windows in the Florida room, and stair railing are all original to the house.) Chic encaustic tiles throughout instill a distinctive island palette that marries casual elegance with a refined aesthetic. The chef 's kitchen boasts a Sub-zero fridge, Ilvy gas range, Bosche washer/dryer and custom lacquered cabinetry. The primary bedroom has an attached dressing room that can double as an office or 4th bedroom/nursery.
