About 546 Douglas St Street

Screened by a beautiful Palo Verde tree and mature native garden, 546 Douglas is a rare 1923 Spanish Colonial Revival bungalow still rich with original character. Creamy, textured stucco, graceful arches and the authentic clay tile-lined roof pull visitors up a gently curving flagstone path bordered by native iris and hummingbird's favorite California fuchsia to the generous covered front porch. Visitors are welcomed by the broad front arch, the ribbon of wood casement windows and a gorgeous solid oak front door - with the original brass speakeasy! Open the front door to reveal honey-hued narrow plank hardwood floors and preserved wood molding -- these original elements, as well as the fully restored casement windows and Batchelder tile fireplace convey pride, quality and artistry. It's difficult to name the star of the living room: is it the beautiful multi-pane wavy glass wood windows, or the decorative fireplace surround with original tilework? Both living and dining rooms enjoy lovely filtered natural light through ample windows and offer access to the outside via wood french doors to the elevated side porch. The updated kitchen with classic built-in banquette seating boasts modern upgrades, including a suite of stainless steel Samsung appliances and Kraus sink and faucet. Subway tile backsplash and butcher block countertops integrate beautifully with the home's original character. The details are everything here - hardware on cabinetry, built-ins and door and windows throughout have all been refurbished with architecturally and era appropriate bronze, brass and glass.
