Property Description

In 1936 the original owners of ''La Quinta Tranquilla'' gave their architect inspired instructions that led to this one-of-a-kind Hacienda. From over-sized handmade bricks purposefully laid unevenly, to a detached living room, like part of a historic California mission, to the many arches of the courtyard arcades, the home was designed in the early California style. Contrasting old-world charm with modern updates, the current owners have completed a thorough restoration and renovation of the entire house with historically informed colorful murals and other decorative painted flourishes. The detached living room with a wood-paneled Cathedral ceiling, includes an intimate library, and an adobe brick fireplace. Hand-carved doors throughout the home open from main living areas to the tranquil courtyard, the centerpiece of which is a stunning fountain. The remodeled kitchen features Thermador appliances, custom cabinets, and Brazilian Quartzite countertops. The master suite with wood beamed ceilings has a beautifully appointed full bathroom. The grounds were professionally landscaped with agaves and trees reminiscent of the early California ranchos. The home's systems have been upgraded to include a ''whole-house'' water filtration system
