Positioned on a tranquil cul-de-sac just off Benedict Canyon Drive in the coveted Beverly Hills Post Office neighborhood, this enchanting retreat is a lovely '20s treasure. Until recent years, it was cherished by one family for nearly half a century. The home's approximately 2,235 square feet of meticulously renovated rooms, some restored to the studs, are filled with wood details, arched doorways, leaded glass windows, vintage style tiles and wrought iron accents. Many spaces open to lush canyon view decks and patios. Set under striking multi-beamed ceilings, the living room and step-up dining room are highlighted by a vintage style chimney fireplace. Multi-paned windows and doors fill the spaces with light and open to a skylit view patio. Off the dining room, a cozy den is the ideal place for TV and conversation. The fully remodeled kitchen features ceramic floors and back-splash, Franke farmhouse sink, luxe fixtures, gleaming stainless appliances accented with reclaimed wood and under-cabinet lighting. The window-wrapped ensuite primary features a vaulted wood ceiling, leafy views, tiled fireplace, spacious walk-in closet and airy bath. The second bedroom boasts a vaulted, beamed wood ceiling, and a charming window seat. A third bedroom, currently an office, opens to a tree-wrapped redwood deck/patio. The shared bath features Rohl/Riu brushed gold shower and sink fixtures, and a Calacatta marble top vanity. A fourth room, serving as a bedroom, offers multiple options. The property's enchanting outdoor environment has been enhanced by all-new wooden decks, stairs and patio. The upper deck off the office has been enlarged and restored. Tucked beneath is an outdoor room with a glorious river rock fireplace. Other key upgrades include a comprehensive roof refurbishment, upper-level fireplace relining and restoration, new ADT security system, and rear fire deterrent sprinkler system. The home includes a sizable two-car garage with extra height and storage, plus additional front parking. Close to downtown Beverly Hills, Westwood, and the Valley ... yet a world away, ... this timeless home is an incomparable find.
