671 San Lorenzo Street

Once in a great while, a property as special as this one comes to market. And here it is, ready for its new owner to revive its original splendor. A work of noted architects Barienbrock & Murray, vintage 1962, this much-admired post-and-beam architectural classic graces an unusually large, unusually wide, double-sized lot on coveted San Lorenzo Street in prime Santa Monica Canyon. This delightful neighborhood, private and serene in feel, is its own oasis sited just moments from the wonderful dining and shopping on popular Montana Avenue and in very close proximity to the ocean. Bathed in natural light in every corner, this fine home, with its flawless architectural lines, has a sensible, open floor plan that moves easily from room-to-room. Most rooms open seamlessly to the glorious outdoor patios and gardens through sliding glass panels. Soaring, extra-tall beamed ceilings, clerestory windows, many walls of glass and cork floors anchor the era. The foyer opens to a vast living room with its large, brick fireplace and its low, floating mantle. The dining area and family room share an expansive, airy space. The well-planned kitchen has a breakfast area and access to a large laundry and utility room. There are two primary-like bedroom suites, each with a bath and ample closet space and access to the outdoors. Adjacent is a lovely space serving as a third bedroom if desired. There's also direct access to a spacious two- car garage. Very nearby a top-rated public elementary school, Canyon Charter.
