About this home
This California Avenue landmark in Avalon blends the elegance and grace of historic 1920s Victorian architecture with today’s modern, up to date amenities and lifestyle! A wide, tree-lined street sets the tone for this walking neighborhood ~ restaurants, shops, and park. Curb appeal abounds ~ Fall in love with the white, no-maintenance fence, huge front porch, window boxes, bay window, and Victorian charm. Step inside and be immediately wowed by the eclectic chandelier ~ a modern mix of a trendy spherical globe with a Victorian crystal vibe that is a statement piece of artistic function. The entry is set off by the elaborately handcrafted staircase with its substantial newel posts punctuated with decorative caps, and not to be outdone by the quintessential and iconic stained glass window at the staircase landing! Note the modern esthetic created by the paint colors of the traditional wainscoting, To the right of the foyer, glass French doors open to the dining area which is anchored by the first fireplace.
