3741 Stewart AVE Mar Vista, CA 90066

Wow. Just… WOW. Love at first sight. This is, simply put, one of the most exceptional homes in Mar Vista. Gorgeous period details, tasteful modern updates, stunning curb appeal, architectural pedigree, and of course a perfect location all converge at 3741 Stewart. This is truly a legacy address on one of the best blocks on the Westside, completely rebuilt by Lisa Henderson AIA, founder of Harvest Architecture. Even before you reach the front door, you will know this property is special: the classic Spanish architecture and mature Korn-Randolph landscaping combine for a curb appeal that will remind you why you LOVE living in California. A bubbling fountain and peaceful seating area add to the serenity as you enter through the intimate arched cloister. Step inside and instantly realize that this is the complete package. “Elegant” and “warm” are adjectives that immediately come to mind. High ceilings, rich hardwood, graceful arches, and abundant natural light welcome you. Discriminating modern upgrades blend harmoniously with the traditional elements that give this home so much character. A period-perfect living room greets you, complete with soaring cathedral ceilings and vintage-tiled fireplace. Enter further into the central dining room, framed by a landed staircase and dramatic wood-beamed ceiling. The open floorplan draws you into the main living space: a huge cook's kitchen anchored by a large, family-friendly island, and the bright, inviting family room that opens directly into the lush backyard. Every room is bathed in light from dozens of windows. Step outside to a private oasis of towering, mature vegetation, including your own backyard orchard with flowering fruit trees. An outdoor kitchen and dining area are perfect for family dinners and sunset soirées. Across the yard is the large converted garage (with full bath and huge storage room) perfect for an office, gym, or even another bedroom. A luxurious master suite overlooks the yard from the second story… the private balcony offers huge views, and is the perfect place to enjoy the sunset. There is simply too much to list, literally nothing was overlooked. And don’t forget the A+ location! Quiet, tree-lined streets, walking distance to the shops and restaurants of hip Mar Vista, a quick bike ride to the beach and Abbot Kinney, and easy access to the rest of the city. This is the one you’ve been looking for, a very special offering in one of the hottest neighborhoods in the city. Come fall in love.
