A Rare 1930 Spanish Revival Gem with Timeless Character and Modern Comforts. Step into history with this original 1930 Spanish Revival home, a rare offering that blends timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful modern updates. This residence boasts four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with an architectural story that unfolds at every turn. The living room sets the stage with a wood-burning fireplace, dramatic picture windows, a charming window seat with hidden storage, and an original built-in secretary desk. Adding to its distinction are the home's one-of-a-kind bi-fold casement windows, a feature so unique that even historic window specialists have rarely seen anything like them. French doors with original hardware open gracefully into the dining room, creating a seamless flow for gatherings. Throughout the original structure, plaster walls remain intact, preserving the home's authentic character. The kitchen and original bath have been tastefully remodeled, preserving charm while offering everyday functionality. A Viking stove and hood fan, along with a new stainless steel dishwasher complete the setting. A significant 1990 addition expanded the home to include a versatile fourth bedroom with a private balcony (currently serving as a home office), a laundry room, a basement retreat perfect for entertaining or work, and an expansive owner's suite. This owner's retreat features vaulted ceilings, hardwood flooring, a custom walk-in closet, a spa-like bath with clawfoot tub, a skylight, and its own wood-burning fireplace. Sliding doors lead to a covered deck overlooking the patio, complete with a water fountain and cafe string lights for enchanting evenings. Looking over the private backyard lined with cafe string lights secluded from the outside world, it is an entertainer's dream. The grounds are as captivating as the interiors. This beautifully landscaped property offers year-round enjoyment with an array of trees and flowering plants. The rear yard showcases a stately mulberry tree shading the paver patio and fountain, along with three mature trees (grapefruit, macadamia nut, and lime), and three younger trees, yet fruit-bearing, one being a lemon and two peach trees. Four rose bushes bring vibrant color throughout the year. In the front yard, lush landscaping includes birds of paradise, a large mature plumeria, crepe myrtle, magnolia, and a striking Golden Trumpet tree. Recent updates bring peace of mind: seismic bracing and foundation reinforcement (2023), termite treatment with warranty, new landscaping front and rear with gated entry, new dishwasher (2025), updated bath fixtures (2025), carpeting in the basement (2022), pest-proofing (2022), and seasonal HVAC servicing. Located on one of the last streets served by The Whittier Cruiser, a free all-electric shuttle connecting you to Uptown Whittier, Rodeo 72 Public Market, and more, the home offers unbeatable convenience. Uptown Whittier, with its charming main street, features a vibrant local restaurant and business culture, and throughout the year hosts numerous community events that celebrate its unique spirit. Parks and trails are nearby, including Hellman Wilderness Park and the Whittier Greenway, while I-605 access is less than 10 minutes away. This home is not just a residence, it is a piece of Whittier's history, a showcase of rare craftsmanship, and a sanctuary of comfort for modern living.
