Opis:

Unique and irreplaceable, this authentic adobe retreat, built from two historic missions in New Mexico in the early 1900's, was transported via train to Rancho Santa Fe by Hollywood starlet Corinne Griffith and lovingly restored by blending location, structure, environment and design to form an ultra-distinctive, yet entirely livable home within a desirable Covenant setting. The floor plan of this 5-bedroom estate allows the indoors to flow naturally to the outdoors, creating an enchanting environment with ambiance-rich covered verandas that stretch the entire length of the house. Mesmerizing 180 degree panoramic mountain views, enjoyed from nearly every room, give the home the perception of being "on top of the world." A fabulous master retreat, with custom fireplace and separate his and her baths and dressing rooms, offers luxury, tranquility and privacy. The formal living room, dining room and massive family room are hallmarks that feature numerous exotic details. A glass walled sunroom with endless views and the adjacent galley kitchen preserve the authenticity of this historic home and combine effortlessly with unique appointments and an array of stylish pieces from various countries and periods, creating a magical, warm, and eclectic effect. The separate 3 bedroom 2.5 bath, two-story guesthouse with full kitchen reflects the same details and quality as the main house. Hidden within the property's mature tropical landscape, the natural rock spa with water fall, grotto-style pool, numerous paths and verandas create a paradise for relaxation or grand entertaining. Additional features, some of which are from the two missions, include original handcrafted shutters, hand-laid wood floors, genuine latillas and vigas ceilings, stained glass skylights, hand-carved details by craftsman David Frisk, shepherds' lofts, handcrafted light fixtures, 7 wood-burning fireplaces, numerous outdoor patios, a BBQ station, delightful entry bell, 4-car garage, long winding driveway and spacious motor court. This classic is for the discerning Buyer who appreciates a distinctive, unique home with designer flair and historic roots.
