This 1920s Spanish Revival has been completely transformed, marrying old-world charm with fresh, modern elegance. Set on a quiet street in sought-after Franklin Village, the home has been timelessly redesigned from the studs up, with no detail overlooked and thoughtful luxury throughout.


The exquisite and expanded entryway perfectly sets the stage for what’s to come. A custom stained glass front door, hand-laid tile work, board-and-batten paneling, built-in cabinetry, and period-appropriate vintage light fixtures all create an unforgettable first impression and hint at the incredible craftsmanship and artistry that’s found in every room.

Inside, the original hardwood floors speak to the home’s history and have been carefully restored, their golden grain now framed by crisp new baseboards, smooth plaster walls, and hand-troweled stucco that feels at once classic and new.

Behind the scenes, the home has been quietly modernized with all-new plumbing, HVAC, windows, doors, gutters, and a refurbished roof. Throughout the home, artisan-fitted window treatments and vintage-inspired finishes reflect a deep attention to detail. A complete care and maintenance manual is included for every tile, fixture, appliance, and surface and I’m told the sale can also include the beautifully curated furniture package, offering a true turnkey experience.

The living room is both elegant and inviting, with gracefully restored archways and original exposed ceiling beams anchor the living room in its 1920s roots. Sunlight pours through the space, highlighting vintage light fixtures and custom built-ins. Discreet mirrored pocket doors conceal the television, allowing the room to effortlessly transition from cozy evenings to elevated entertaining, all with seamless access to the kitchen and outdoor spaces beyond.

The library was designed to inspire creativity every day. This one-of-a-kind space offers bespoke built-in bookshelves and cabinets and a custom desk prime for you to perfect your next novel or screenplay.

Enchanting wallpaper graces the ceiling, while a rolling library ladder leads to a cozy loft outfitted with a mattress and soft lighting, making it the perfect spot for reading, dreaming, or simply getting away for a nice little nap.

At the heart of the home is a dreamy chef’s kitchen, equal parts elegant and functional. It arrives brilliantly curated and beautifully equipped with a Thermador refrigerator, Sub-Zero freezer, and a stunning Lacanche range with both a traditional and convection oven. A deep farm sink and built-in water purification system add thoughtful functionality, while butcher block counters and custom cabinetry that reaches the ceiling are accented with stained glass that offer warmth and character.

A marble-topped table with built-in booth seating creates the perfect space for casual meals or late-night conversations.

Just beyond a charming double (and pink!) Dutch door, an outdoor dining area awaits.

This covered space has a newly installed electric awning and is ideal for long, sun-drenched lunches or dinners under the stars.

Back inside, the jewel-box powder room delights with custom millwork, whimsical floral wallpaper, and luxurious Water Monopoly fixtures sourced from England. This guest bath is a charming surprise sure to leave an impression.

Wrapped in playful color and thoughtful design, the laundry room is anything but ordinary. Elegant tile, tailored cabinetry, abundant workspace, and dual brand-new washers and dryers turn a daily task into something quietly luxurious.

The primary suite offers a custom window seat with cushion, custom cabinetry in the closet, and designer lighting.

The primary bath is a serene retreat, featuring a Water Monopoly clawfoot tub, meticulously crafted tile work, a custom vanity complete with a built-in makeup mirror, a spacious walk-in tiled shower, and a sparkling new chandelier that adds a touch of glamour.

The two back bedrooms feature brilliant natural light, new closets, new doors, and a mix of vintage and modern light fixtures.

Each of the guest bedrooms provide a restful escape, making them perfect places to lay your head for both children and any visitor in need of quiet comfort.

The hallway bathroom, shared between the two secondary bedrooms, showcases new tile work, Water Monopoly fixtures, a new bathtub, and a bespoke vanity with dual sinks, and made-to-measure arched medicine cabinets.

The welcoming front patio, enveloped by carefully curated privacy landscaping and matching iron accents, offers an outdoor space designed for relaxation and gracious entertaining.

Out back, enjoy the sparkling refurbished pool already fully permitted and designed for future upgrades.

The backyard has been impeccably reimagined with lush, high-end landscaping and a sophisticated sprinkler system that ensures effortless maintenance. Custom-crafted ironwork graces the gates and railings, adding an artisanal touch of elegance and security. A pristine new front driveway, paired with an advanced drainage system, completes the seamless blend of beauty and function.

The property also includes a large detached studio space with gorgeous cathedral ceilings.

The sale comes with architectural plans and permits for the next lucky owner to construct a two-story additional dwelling unit here, offering tremendous potential for guests, a home office, pool house, or rental income.
