Be prepared to be delighted and charmed by this storied stone estate. It is approximately 4,182 square feet under roofline. The field stone walls & wrought iron gates set the stage for a place where time slows, nature sings & everyday life unfolds like a chapter from a beloved novel. Situated on nearly 2 acres of flat land that allows for an ADU, large scale garages, or equestrian facilities. The land is so expansive and ready for the new buyer to create their dream estate. The yard boasts an orchard of heritage trees, including avocado, lemon, orange & grapefruit, native gardens & historic architecture, this one of a kind home offers both a rare connection to the past & an inspiring lifestyle for the present. Originally built in 1931 by local businessman, Jack Davis during the Great Depression, the home's construction was a labor of love. Over the decades, only four owners have stewarded this estate, each preserving the integrity while gently enhancing it with modern comforts. The heart of the home is a welcoming kitchen with handcrafted Pelletier cabinetry & granite counters, an inviting space where you can gather, not just to prepare meals, but to linger & enjoy views of the gardens. The family room has been updated & enhanced by renowned Hartman Baldwin, Design Build, & is adjacent to the kitchen, offering an opportunity for an ample gathering space. The living & dining rooms exude charm. The hardwood floors gleam in the sunlight. There are beamed ceilings that offer height & substance to the rooms. The primary suite was created in 1993 by Roy F. Kroll & Associates, a Design Build firm in Claremont. They were able to infuse the desire for a modern space, without disrupting the charm of the original structure. During this addition, they added a loft, perfect for a home office. The additional bedrooms are roomy & all have a view of the gorgeous grounds. Outside you will find a thoughtfully designed patio area with a waterfall that enhances the tranquility of the space. This is the perfect place to savor a cup of coffee or enjoy glass of wine. As you exit the home you will find an exciting addition of useable space in the laundry/wet room & the artist studio, as well as the workshop. Above all, this property is a haven for nature lovers. Whether you are entertaining, painting in the studio, harvesting citrus or just enjoying the warm sunny days, life here is measured in moments, memories and meaning. This is more than a home. It's a lifestyle.
