Property Description

Situated on more than a half acre of professionally designed and widely acclaimed grounds Casa dos Mujeres is an incredible 1925 Spanish revival estate that has been carefully and expertly restored by the present owners. The period details and authentic character are evident throughout. This is particularly highlighted in the entry with the original Spanish tile floors, impressive main stairway, and breathtaking living room where the beamed ceiling transports you back in time. In the restoration all major systems were updated and sensitive renovations were completed to preserve the house, capture the spirit of the era, but allow for modern living. The grounds are spectacular and a tranquil retreat from the outside world. A lily pond, Japanese-inspired pond, and several fountains provide the gentle trickling sound of water. The approachable sophistication is inviting, the elegance of the original details makes visitors want to linger, and the connection between the architecture and landscape is romantic. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a truly special estate.
