In 1926, Mr. Seth Rice proudly selected this parcel on which to construct a home for his family. Fortunately, he elected to do so with an eye on the simple elegance of then contemporary Spanish design specific to the American west. This long time Owner has loved and sought to preserve that original character during their more than 60-year tenure in this special home. The private front patio welcomes guests to the original mahogany front door, which opens to a grand formal living room with a high barrel ceiling, gorgeous picture window, fireplace, and the preserved original thin plank red oak flooring. The formal dining room enjoys that same beautiful hard wood flooring as well. The bright kitchen has a lovely breakfast room that is bathed in natural light. The central hall leads to all three of the spacious bedrooms as well as the bright bath. The end of this hall opens to a private rear patio which is a wonderful space for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the view of the gardens and private rear yard which is surrounded by mature landscaping. Just a few features include central air and heating, upgraded copper horizontal piping, a large laundry room, and a detached two car garage. The Owners have particularly enjoyed this location near Balboa Elementary, Brand Park, and the local flavor of the Kenneth Village.
