This Mediterranean cottage, built circa 1910, is filled with charm and character. Captivating architectural details and unique appointments can be found in each and every space. From the massive front door through the light-filled foyer, to the fireside living room, sunny den and separate dining room, every step takes you to another place and time.

The distinctive windows, the wealth of original detail, the custom clay tile with wooden inlay flooring; all of these and more rare touches tell you this home is special. Even the chef's kitchen is amazing, with its own cozy shelf-lined office plus a casual dining area with a beautiful fireplace overlooking the secluded courtyard.

The owner's suite is on the main floor, as well, and boasts a huge custom-fitted walk-in closet and a private bath with separate tub/shower, double vanity, and a closet with laundry hook-ups. The best thing about this suite, however, is that it accesses the back courtyard, a private, walled oasis that insists you are on vacation in the south of France and not in the middle of a big American city.

Upstairs you will find two additional bedrooms, one with an ensuite bath. The other, larger bedroom opens to a private balcony. In addition, there is an upstairs hall bath and laundry room.

Besides the serene courtyard, the landscaped grounds include a lovely terraced garden lined with stacked stone walls, a garden shed, and a two-car carport.
