Property Description
Welcome to this stunning Italian Renaissance Revival masterpiece, designed by Evald C. Moller, and meticulously rehabilitated to blend historic charm with modern luxury. Located in the coveted Lafayette Square HPOZ, this 3719 square foot, 5-bedroom, 6-bathroom residence offers an exceptional living experience where Italian Renaissance elements together with Spanish Colonial influences were preserved and enhanced throughout. The front door opens to the main level, revealing a dramatic center hall staircase along a coved wall with Spanish tiles adorning the stair risers and a decorative black iron stair rail. The graceful formal living and dining rooms lie to each side of the staircase. A gourmet kitchen features sophisticated tuxedo cabinetry, stainless appliances, a pantry, as well as a butler's pantry with butcher block countertops and glass door cabinets. A service porch with a laundry area is adjacent, as well as a bedroom with a full bath, ideal for guests, private living quarters or an office. A cozy breakfast room provides a bright spot for morning gatherings. The open and airy great room is complimented by a preserved, whimsical mural that opens to a beautiful veranda, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. Adding to the charm, the home includes two fireplaces and a large basement with a wine storage closet, likely installed by the home's first owner, Italian wine merchant, Anthony J. Di Betta. From the veranda, you can step to the rear garden where you'll find a newly resurfaced and tiled sparkling pool, citrus trees and patio areas. An outdoor bathroom with a shower adds convenience to pool days or entertaining. The garage also boasts two storage rooms adjacent to it, providing plenty of space for your hosting and gardening essentials. The second level features four bedrooms, two of which have ensuite bathrooms. The original bathroom tiles are paired with new period reproduction fixtures, creating a timeless look. The primary ensuite boasts side-by-side cedar closets, a walk-in closet with a dressing area, and an updated bathroom with dual sinks and an oversized shower. This home is one of the 238 homes in Lafayette Square, developed by George Crenshaw in the early 1900's. It's history includes many prominent residents such as Henry Boos, proprietor of Boos Brothers Cafeterias, University founder George Pepperdine, famed architect Paul Wiliams who designed his home as well as others, and George Crenshaw himself, who also owned a home in the Square. This home is a rare find, combining historic elegance with modern convenience. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of Lafayette Square's heritage.
