Sitting on almost half an acre in the heart of the Uplifters Rustic Canyon the original shingled cottage named “Oak Shadows” has evolved into a stately residence with aspects of a Hollywood style Chateau d’Amboise. The current house offers a stately living room centered around a quintessential canyon river rock fireplace, the kitchen, a formal dining room and gracious den that opens to the flat back yard and pool area. Above, the main bedroom suite sits, with views of the canyon, includes a large walk in closet and an adjacent library/office or flex space. The adjacent wing of the main floor includes another living room, open kitchen and two bedrooms plus two baths. A two car garage plus quarters for the housekeeper and chauffeur, that were later added, are part fo the whole. The front and back gardens, and pool area, are magical on this street to street corner lot. This is a truly a rare opportunity to realize your own vision a block from Rustic Canyon Park between the Santa Monica Mountains, State Beach and Canyon elementary school.
