This was one of the first homes built on this hillside in 1927. Originally, the La Mesa Country Club and Golf course was across the street where now sits a private school. Thus the surrounding street names fit the theme. Inside, almost every room has an eastern hill and city light view. There are gorgeous wood carved feature doors, original etched wood beams, rich wood flooring and arches. The piano sized living room has French doors that lead to the front courtyard and lily pond. Beyond the living room is the garden room that is surrounded by windows. What a great home office this could make! The formal dining room also has rich wood flooring, built in corner cabinets and a crystal chandelier. Roof tiles were hand made and any replacements were also hand made: all matching the originals. The kitchen has original style, but with hidden modern amenities such as a hidden Sub-Zero refrigerator and an under the counter microwave. The Breakfast nook has a lovely view also. Etched beams, original ornate hardware, all original shimmering ripple glass in the windows and hand made roof tiles to name a few. Red terra-cotta tile flooring in the entry and kitchen are also original to the home, as are the stained glass windows and wrought iron railings in the staircase. The large grassy area offers lots of room to play! There is a small adjoining room that the seller used for an office, but could be a nursery or even a second walk-in closet. The laundry room is on the lower level and not included in the square footage of the house. It has a washer, dryer, tankless water heater and an ironing center. There is a separate building at the bottom of the property that could be a workshop, playhouse, hobby room or just storage. Beside that, there is a possible orchid grotto/ Gazebo.
