When you enter the gate, surrounded by a charming white picket fence, don’t be mislead. This is not a cottage with a few rose bushes and a carefully tended garden. This house, on one of the most beautiful canals of Westlake Lake, has been meticulously restored by a master craftsman, making it both intriguing and unique.
Who would rip out granite and stainless steel in the kitchen, replacing it with gleaming black and white tiles, bead board ceilings, and a restored, 1940’s stove? Who would cover all of the floors with Mexican tiles, hand-fired in designs of stunning area rugs, in both the kitchen and master bath? Who would line the dining area with white Shaker walls, and a two-sided fireplace facing both the living and dining area, one with intricately designed Spanish tiles? Someone who has brought this gorgeous residence to its roots, with authenticity.
Every room shows evidence of true art: the living room has custom, built-in cupboards, cabinets, and shelving that integrate beautifully with the crown molding and wainscoting. Three walls of the office are lined with built-ins; you need only bring your computer and you’re ready for business! Surround sound extends throughout these rooms.
The master bedroom and bath faces the water, with large sliders and walk-in closet, plus so many custom bureaus and cabinets, again, all you need is a bed and toothbrush. On the other side of the home are three large guest rooms and bath.
The Azek deck, railings, and dock are only three years old, with room for several seating areas and tables. Three huge sycamore trees offer plenty of shade on sunny mornings, and a perfect view of the mountains can be seen from this large patio.
It’s truly wonderful to find a home that is so fine-honed, with nothing left to chance. Every corner offers not only a “wow,” but respect for the artisan that transformed a pretty house into a rarity that won’t be found anywhere else. This home not only shouts “location, location, location,” but “authentic, authentic, authentic.”
