329 Sycamore Rd

In the heart of coveted Santa Monica Canyon, just a short stroll from the Pacific Ocean, Rustic Canyon Park, Canyon School and all the coffee, restaurants, and shopping the Canyon has to offer, this beautifully restored 100 year old home is ready to be enjoyed. A legal duplex, with two separate houses both with 2 Bedrooms and 1 1/2 Bathrooms, separated by a lush yard with fresh native landscaping, plus an additional finished two-car garage for the perfect office, work space or art studio. This unique compound is a true retreat, replete with ocean breezes and cool summer nights, seemingly a world away, and yet just minutes to downtown Santa Monica. Enter the front house through a secured front gate, flanked by night-blooming Jasmine, into a newly landscaped front yard. The living room and den with original wood-burning fireplace lead into a beautifully modernized chef's kitchen that retains its old world charm yet with all new appliances and surfaces to prepare your bounty from the nearby Santa Monica Farmer's Market. New exterior doors flow onto the private deck for al fresco dining and entertaining. Across the garden path the rear two-story structure has been lovingly restored, perfect as an office, work space, guest house, primary suite or rental. A balcony off the second floor captures the ocean breeze and warm sunset light. This charming, creative property is an incredible opportunity, where the sellers have done the heavy work, including electrical and plumbing, renovated floors, windows, walls and more. The potential of this beautifully restored Canyon home is endless.
