Property Description

This stunning original and historic 1926 Moorish Revival, designed by famous (legendary) architect Sylvanus Marston, is located in one of the most desirable areas of Santa Monica, La Mesa Drive. You will discover this exquisite home, in excellent condition for the era, offering so many hidden gems, gems you will never find in any other property throughout Los Angeles County. As you enter the foyer you will be greeted with a vaulted Moorish style ceiling that leads you into a spacious living room with vaulted ceilings and original 6” oak wood flooring; a dining room featuring a floor entirely comprised of original Moorish tile flooring, and a library with an original Speakeasy. As you walk up the breathtaking spiral staircase you are greeted with a fluid floor plan, complete with Jack and Jill bathrooms in between the bedrooms. Be sure to keep your eyes out for all of the 1926 sconces and candelabras throughout the bedrooms (look for the push button doorknobs on all the closets offering storage galore). Last, but not least, be sure to walk down the second spiral staircase leading you into a vast, expansive basement with a wine cellar and so much more. This home sits on close to ½ acre flat lot stretching all the way from La Mesa Drive to San Vicente Blvd… perfect for designing your dream backyard. This home is truly a must see as it will take your breath away.
