Located within a short block of the world famous Huntington Library in San Marino, this gracious Colonial estate with a striking brick front and circular drive-way was thoughtfully renovated in 2008, highlighting its original architectural integrity while integrating modern amenities. The center hall plan has an exquisite living room to the right of the foyer and an inviting formal dining room to the left; while double doors lead to a warm library/office with built-in book shelves, handsome fireplace, and large windows that look onto the sweeping patio and the backyard beyond. The living room features deep crown moldings, gorgeous peg & groove wood floors, sconces and recessed lighting; features that are carried throughout the house, in addition to an impressive fireplace and French doors leading to a covered rear patio and pool. The formal dining room is highlighted by a glistening chandelier and view of the front garden. Adjacent to the formal dining room is the well-appointed kitchen with a breakfast area, center island, custom wood cabinetry, granite counters, travertine backsplash and floors, plus professional series stainless steel appliances, which will satisfy your most discerning chef. A secondary stairway is conveniently located in the kitchen, leading to the upstairs guest quarter with a full bath. Just beyond the kitchen is the expansive family room with a fireplace and built-in display shelves. Two powder rooms with intricate tile work are ideally located and complete the lower level of the house. The hallmark of the large master suite located on the second floor is the sophisticated master bathroom featuring double Carrera marble vanities and Carrera marble floor. This tranquil spa-inspired bath has a rain shower as well as a soaking tub with air jets. You can finish off your in-home spa day by lounging on the sun-filled terrace with view of the yard.

One is a suite complete with a full bath, adorned with designer tile work over the tub. The other bedroom has display shelves and double closets and adjoins the � hallway bath with double vanity. In addition to the pool, the great backyard offers a large spa, housed by a custom gazebo with built-in bench seating, and a �jungle� gym.
