A generous grassy front yard gives way to a Saltillo tile walkway that draws guests through a gated front garden and patio to a covered porch entry. Inside, handsome hardwood floors, arched passageways, creamy plaster walls, and natural light set the tone. The living room is the centerpiece of the home. With soaring 13-foot tongue-and-groove vaulted ceilings with exposed timber beams, a traditional arched fireplace, wrought iron and brass wall sconces, wood casement windows, and French doors that dissolve the boundary between indoor space and the leafy front garden.

Tucked away, a 237 SF back office and studio awaits.
