Property is move-in ready.
This 1930s Mediterranean villa is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready, preserving its architectural integrity with original hardwood floors and a red barrel tile roof. While the kitchen and bathrooms are functional and spacious, they feature older styles—such as tile countertops and white appliances—that do not meet the 'excellent' criteria for recent high-end renovations. However, the inclusion of solar panels and the overall pristine condition of the living areas and grounds justify a 'good' rating as a well-preserved historic estate.
Known as 'The Bacopa Villa,' this 1930s Mediterranean masterpiece features exquisite original details, including hardwood floors, a red barrel tile roof, and a dramatic skylight that preserves its historic charm.
The residence offers a resort-like atmosphere with an interior courtyard for alfresco dining, formal living and dining rooms with fireplaces, and a generous 11,703 sqft lot with mountain views.
With over 4,400 sqft, six bedrooms, and a detached garage with a permit for conversion to a pool or music room, the property provides ample space for multi-generational living or a home office.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 6, other record bedroom count = 4.
While the 1930s charm is a highlight, buyers may need to invest in updating older systems or finishes to meet contemporary luxury standards and energy efficiency beyond the existing solar panels.
The conversion of a fifth bedroom into a laundry room and the dual-staircase configuration may result in a floor plan that feels fragmented or less cohesive for some modern families.
