Description

Accepting back up offers! Original 1938 Cliff May ranch home in the Huntington Palisades. Featuring an indoor-outdoor living concept, clay-tile roof and exposed wood beamed vaulted ceilings throughout, Mays signature details create a scenic setting ideal for the California good life. Centered around the courtyard and outdoor living room with creeping fig covered fireplace and vegetable garden, the floor plan seamlessly flows from interior living quarters to several inviting escapes which include pool/spa and meditation garden that offer space and openness. In classic Cliff May fashion, this romantic 3 bed, 4 bath home has airy cross-ventilation, two gas burning fireplaces inside, and rusticated surfaces with a mix of Spanish Mexican and California Mission nuance. As a bonus, the converted garage can be used as an office, den, gym, art studio, nanny suite and includes a full bathroom with shower and heated floors. Kitchen with breakfast area has ample storage and stainless steel appliances, Viking oven and microwave, Wolf five-burner stovetop, and Sub-zero refrigerator. Ozone and hydrogen peroxide pool and spa have Ophora Bio-Fresh Organic Pool Purification System, and Current Systems 10HP swim-in-place river flow pump accented by Bluestone tile. This is soulful, serene early California at its best surrounded by lush privacy hedges and all the original charm. Exclusive use of the Huntington park. Minutes to Palisades Village, Erewhon Market, The Village School, Will Rodgers and Temescal Canyon hiking trails, freeway access, beaches, and Potrero Canyon Park (opening in 2022). To me, when we lived on the ranch, with cross-ventilation and rooms spread out and around courtyards, basic old California plans, it seemed to be a much better way to build and live. - Cliff May 2021-09-01
