The charming and eclectic nature of this classic Spanish estate, Casa Señorial, is a result of its long history, humble beginnings and precise rejuvenation. Originally built in the 1950's as two adobe structures, the property's main residence and detached casita, on aprx 1-acre, have maintained Old World charm while being tastefully and meticulously updated with modern conveniences. Historical elements are found throughout the home and across the property; the wooden beams in the living room were originally part of an old bridge, and the impressive stone fireplace was rescued from the now-demolished Dabney Estate. A majestic towering redwood tree, nicknamed ''Big Ben'', is one of the few still thriving in the area. Without question, this special home & property are incomparable and unique.
