A timeless example of Spanish Revival architecture, this cherished residence—held by the same family for nearly 50 years—embodies the romance and craftsmanship of California’s Golden Era. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, Spanish tile crowns the entry, and a Mediterranean-style door with wrought-iron detailing offers an elegant welcome. Inside, graceful arched doorways frame a living room with vaulted, beamed ceilings, formal dining room, hardwood floors, mahogany trim and doors, original wrought-iron fixtures, and classic windows that define its enduring character. The layout includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a kitchen with expansive glass doors opening to a private yard for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The lower level features a versatile bonus room ideal for office or gym, with potential for expansion, plus laundry and generous storage. Mature landscaping enhances privacy and tranquility. Ideally located minutes from Arlington shops and cafés, downtown Berkeley, Tilden Park, the Little Farm, golf, and scenic trails. Located in coveted Thousand Oaks with a BESO score of 1, don’t let this one slip away.
