Overview

This 1916 Craftsman retreat offers an elevated, light-filled escape with canyon views. Positioned with southwest exposure, the home is bathed in warm morning and afternoon sun, highlighting the original matchstick hardwood floors that run throughout the upper level, preserving the home's historic architectural charm. The heart of the home is an elegantly updated, modern kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, signature Heath tile, and curated finishes from Rejuvenation including vintage-style hardware, light fixtures, and switch plates. Thoughtfully designed for both style and utility, the space boasts open shelving, a built-in wine rack, and even a dedicated pet-dish cubby. French doors open from the kitchen to a private back patio and a magical, expansive garden, offering an indoor-outdoor flow perfect for both entertaining and quiet moments. The lush grounds feature lovely mature landscaping, including a stately oak and a Japanese maple. Wide stone steps provide a natural path to a versatile, detached finished studio complete with skylights—a nature-filled retreat whether used as an office, art, or exercise studio. The primary suite provides a refined sanctuary on the lower level, featuring custom closets and a spacious, updated bathroom. Just steps from Glenview’s vibrant dining scene—home to local favorites like Marzano, Bellanico, and Paulista —this property offers exceptional neighborhood connectivity. A rear garden path provides direct access to Glendora Avenue, while a nearby stairway leads straight to Trestle Glen. Whether you're heading out for a morning coffee or a scenic Sunday stroll through Lakeshore’s shops and restaurants, everything you need is moments away.
