Description
A Century of Character. A World of Possibility. Nestled on one of Santa Monica's most desirable tree-lined streets, this charming 1925 Spanish-style residence blends timeless appeal, comfortable living, and an inviting canvas for its next chapter. Set on a generous lot in Gillette's Regent Square, the home features three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms (one full, one three-quarter, and one half bath; tax records reflect two bathrooms). The inviting interior spaces connect beautifully to the outdoors. The living room is anchored by a fireplace adorned with distinctive Batchelder tile, while French doors open to a backyard framed by mature landscaping. In the formal dining room, another set of French doors leads to a lovely patio, creating a welcoming setting for leisurely meals, entertaining, and everyday indoor-outdoor living. Located in the coveted North of Montana neighborhood, just moments from the boutiques, cafes, and restaurants of Montana Avenue, the property pairs an exceptional setting with compelling potential. A detached garage presents an excellent opportunity to explore an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), while the expansive lot invites the possibility of an addition or thoughtful reimagining of the residence. Approximately 100 years old and offered as-is, this character-filled home welcomes buyers seeking a Spanish residence they can move into and enjoy, as well as those inspired to renovate, expand, and create something truly special. An invitation to honor the property's history while shaping its future. Architectural sketches prepared by a renowned architectural firm are available with purchase, offering an inspiring glimpse of the property's potential. Call Listing Agent 1 for all showings.
