This inviting Spanish hacienda has been painstakingly restored and upgraded with Latin world influences, designer inspired materials, and expert craftsmanship. No expense was spared! Beautifully upgraded kitchen with granite counters, hammered copper farmhouse sink, and stainless appliances, and lovely bathroom with mirror, light fixture, and wooden vanity cabinet all custom and hand-made in Mexico. The lushly landscaped front and back yards offer multiple entertaining spaces, including a spa tub, fire pit, a BBQ, and two fountains. Don’t miss the bell tower! The complete privacy and serenity of this quiet retreat is a delightful fit for today’s at-home lifestyle. Please see supplement....

The owner has put over $370,000 of improvements into this home in the last 3 years, including newly refinished oak hardwood floors, new exterior stucco and paint, new interior texture and paint, all new wooden windows and doors plus trim, all new interior doors, all new hardware, some upgraded electrical, plumbing improvements, upgraded foundation elements including earthquake straps, newer roof on house and garage, extensive driveway and back patio paving system, new concrete driveway and apron, rebuilt and finished garage with epoxy floors, and much more. Please see Features List attached in the MLS (and copies available at the property). Recent Physical Inspection and Termite report also attached. Historical investigation done by neighbors researching Biona Street discovered that this home is documented to have been built in 1925 by Lewis Dodge, a 3rd generation builder from New England. He built many homes on this street and has been nominated as a Master Builder. This house is significant because it is the first house that Mr. Dodge built in the “new” style that was becoming popular in California…Spanish Colonial Revival. As a result, the home has potential for Historic Designation and may qualify for the Mills Act tax relief.
