Nestled in the sought-after Historic Carriage District, this residence offers over 4,000 sq. ft. of spacious living and bears the widely admired trademarks of its original designer such as arched niches, hand-forged wrought iron details, hand-painted tiles, sweeping stairways, and stunning hardwood floors. It was designed by the famous Santa Barbara architect Joseph Plunkett, whose works are considered to be some of the most beautiful structures in the County, if not the State. Recognized with the Historical Merit Award and built by the mayor of Santa Maria, this property holds a unique place in the community. Upon entering, you arrive in a large round turret-topped entry room, with its own generous walk-in cloak room which is located across the from the breathtaking and gracefully curved stairway complete with original beautiful hand-painted tiles leading to the second floor. Walk through an arched doorway and you enter the massive and spectacular living room. This room features french-doors, a romantic opera balcony, a double-height vaulted ceiling of heavy hand-hewn douglas-fir beams, and ...... and a truly dramatic tiled grand fireplace that soars upwards nearly two stories, and hardwood floors. Continue through the living room to a large beamed-ceiling private bedroom suite, the bath of which still showcases lavender and black vintage tile work.
Elsewhere on the ground floor you will find a spacious dining room, a contemporary kitchen with breakfast bar that is equipped with beautiful quartz countertops, and half bath. Walk beyond the kitchen to a second bedroom with bathroom, pantry, and laundry room which includes a laundry-chute coming from the second floor.
Ideal for entertaining, the home provides two distinct living areas, one on the main floor and another upstairs.
The upper level boasts two luxurious master suites, one of which features a grand exterior balcony and the opera balcony that overlooks the living room, creating an open and airy feel. The upstairs boasts a second living space which includes a wet bar, dining area, cozy family room with fireplace, and can easily be converted into additional bedrooms.
Step outside to a generously large and private backyard oasis, complete with a lush grassy area, large covered patio, automatic sprinklers, and a variety of fruit trees including Navel orange, Hass avocado, and Santa Rosa plum.
Modern upgrades enhance the home's functionality and comfort, including three newer furnaces, some updated plumbing and electrical systems, and updated windows. Plenty of storage is available throughout.
With a wealth of exceptional amenities and captivating historical charm, this remarkable home is a must-see for anyone seeking a unique and inviting property. Don't miss your chance to make this stunning residence your own !
