Property Description

A rare and majestic estate home in Wilmington's famed historic district this 100 year old residence provides a substantial slice of old Southern California genteel living. Built by the Eubank family, banking and business pioneers of Wilmington and the Port of L.A., this spacious tree and shrub surrounded home is an enclave unto itself with a distinctly old money feel enhanced with a modern kitchen, and complete re-wiring and plumbing. The home has been lovingly maintained by the present family for nearly a quarter century and happily retains much of it's historic charm. The lot and grounds are neat and impressive at over 11,000+ soft, the pool inviting, with spacious entry, luxurious parlor with fireplace and French doors onto a private patio, huge formal dining, and a lovely kitchen recently remodeled, featuring a delightful breakfast nook with more views of the lush garden. The large grand staircase is wide, impressive and light filled - large windows everywhere - while the master bedroom is a delight retaining its original sugar glass windows. 2 more large light filled bedrooms and smaller 4th bedroom perfect for a child or as office/study. This two story home has a step out upstairs French door that looks down the broad swath of Banning blvd to the Port beyond. Plenty of storage in 2 car carport, basement, and copious attic. A modern security system, and completely enclosed lot for maximum security. Long known as "The Little Banning Mansion" and for very good​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌ reason!
