With its vertical elegance and tastefully punctuated side gable façade, this has been the Grande Dame of Hillcrest since its commission in 1929. Several rich details of the Spanish architectural vernacular have been carefully preserved here by one family for many decades. The scalloped front door surround with decorative side window grates and sculpted sconce only foreshadow the attention to detail and craftsmanship you will see throughout this important home. The original arched paneled front door opens to the grand formal entry with a high ceiling, preserved magnesite floors, and a staircase right out of a classic 1920’s movie.

The formal dining room seems to suit 20 comfortably in its grand dimensions. There is also an octagonal breakfast room off the kitchen for more intimate meals with family. The massive family room has a gorgeous lead glass picture window, original steel casement windows with lead glass windows above, and rich wood flooring with
