Step into a world of warmth and luxury in this exquisite Spanish bungalow re-imagined by designer Deborah Lea Shain in prime West Adams. Featuring a 3 bed/3 bath residence and standalone ADU, every inch of this home showcases artisanal craftsmanship and finishes, embracing the use of natural materials and a palette of organic textures to deliver upscale elegance and a boutique hotel vibe. Stunning original, arched windows add timeless character and serve as the inspiration for the home's core design element--the arch--which lures you from room to room, providing cohesion and curves throughout. A barrel-vaulted ceiling elevates the beautiful living room anchored by a statement fireplace. Feel the breeze through arched dining room doors, which open onto an Arto-tiled porch perfect for a morning cappuccino or an afternoon spritz. Enter the designer kitchen where custom white oak cabinetry pairs beautifully with leathered Taj Mahal quartzite counters and an authentic Moroccan zellige tile backsplash. A Thermador custom-paneled refrigerator and a Fisher Paykel dual fuel range, make this kitchen a dream for chefs and entertainers alike. Marmorino plaster walls, zellige tile floors and Phylrich un-lacquered brass fixtures create a spa-like atmosphere in the bathrooms, two of which are en suite. With custom vanities topped by real Calacatta Viola and Taj Mahal quartzite, each bathroom is truly a unique work of art, with the primary featuring a deep soaking tub. The large primary suite with walk-in closet complete with built-in cabinetry opens onto an expansive backyard perfect for entertaining and large enough to accommodate a pool or home garden. Pomegranate and persimmon trees, plus fragrant herbs of sage, basil and lavender dot the yard. The standalone ADU provides privacy for guests, or a welcome respite for the work-from-home crowd, with custom kitchen and bath. With extensive upgrades, including new plumbing, electrical, insulation, HVAC, roof, stucco, and gutters, you'll find both comfort and peace of mind. Centrally located in the heart of West Adams, you'll have easy access to the Expo and Crenshaw Lines and proximity to DTLA, Culver and the beach cities. West Adams favorites like Highly Likely, Party Beer Co., Taqueria Los Anaya, Tartine, Mizlala, Vicky's and Alta are all so close! Influenced by the designer's Belgian heritage and international travels, this unique, captivating home must be seen to be fully appreciated. Don't miss the chance to make this extraordinary property yours.
