Casa de Mañana -
Welcome to a timeless piece of California history. This stunning Spanish Colonial Revival home sits on a private canyon lot, offering sweeping western sunset views across the city. Aptly named Casa de Mañana “House of Tomorrow”, this exceptional residence has been lovingly restored and thoughtfully upgraded, blending classic Mediterranean warmth with vibrant artisanal craftsman
Every detail honors its architectural heritage. From the traditional red clay tile roof and graceful arched entryways to the lath-and-plaster walls and preserved original features, the home is a masterpiece of enduring design. Handpicked, handmade tiles adorn the stair risers, bathrooms, and archways, adding color and character throughout. The enchanting courtyard entry welcomes you with a soothing fountain and a magnificent magnolia tree. Arched passageways lead to a romantic portico — perfect for balmy evenings and sunset vistas — just steps from the below-ground bodega, ideal for storing and showcasing fine wines. Inside, beautifully preserved tongue-and-groove oak and mahogany floors, rich stained wood doors, leaded stained-glass windows, and original light fixtures and hardware reflect the home’s authentic charm. The elegant living room is designed for grand entertaining, comfortably hosting 100+ guests, with dual French doors opening to a serene patio and koi pond. Beyond lies a manicured garden shaded by a majestic century-old laced oak tree.
For quieter evenings, gather around the gas fireplace adorned with original Spanish tiles, or retreat to the intimate step-down workspace designed for focus and reflection. The spacious chef’s kitchen captures stunning canyon views and features warm stone countertops, a generous breakfast bar, rich wood cabinetry, a Wolf range, and a cozy breakfast nook. The open-concept layout seamlessly connects the dining room, family room, kitchen, and breakfast bar — creating an inviting space for effortless entertaining and comfortable daily living. Additional upgrades include a copper garage door, a new electrical panel, newer sewer, and all water pipes replaced with copper.
End each day unwinding on the lushly private deck with hot tub and gas fire pit, perfectly positioned to watch the sun sink into the western horizon.
Casa de Mañana has been deeply loved and carefully preserved. It now awaits its next stewards — those who will honor its legacy while writing the next chapter of its story.
