Once you enter 51 La Linda Drive, a majestic, 64
year old home nestled upon 1/3 of an acre of lush rose gardens, historical trees
and a private sprawling backyard with pool and spa, you feel you have arrived in
your own private retreat.
As you first enter the home of 3500 square feet, it’s hard to focus on
anything but the charm of this custom home with original hardwood floors, a
grand staircase, coved arches, beamed ceilings and 3 wood-burning fireplaces.
It’s so hard to determine what is most beautiful: the formal living room with arched ceilings, bay window &
fireplace or the dining room with the view of the yard. Maybe its the den
with wood-burning fireplace, a perfect place for tea or reading.
A walk from the gourmet kitchen with custom cabinets, granite counter tops,
stainless steel appliances to a sprawling family room/breakfast room with wood
floors, built-in custom bookshelves and a ceiling large enough to accommodate a
20 Ft. Christmas tree, lets you know you have entered an area of comfort and
beauty that is wonderful for entertaining or relaxing.
The downstairs would not be complete without a trip to the gorgeous custom
2-story wine cellar complete with copper ceiling and library ladder. Its capable
of accommodating 1200 bottles of wine.
Upstairs await 3 secondary bedrooms, a full guest bath, laundry room and a
master bedroom with a wood-carved fireplace, wood beamed ceiling and a master
bath that would earn its reputation as a 5 star suite.
Whether it is the picturesque view of the
“Bixby Mansion”, the 75 year old Pepper tree, the family of neighbors, this
incredible home at 51 La Linda drive is fit for a king and queen.
