Rare, exquisite, imposing, classic, sophisticated, warm, inviting, gated and secluded are just a few of adjectives used to describe this emotional True Old World Country Cotswold English Tudor Estate in all its' splendor.
This gracious 8,000 square foot Old World English Tudor Jewel is set on 5 secluded wooded acres offering panoramic views of the Lake Arrowhead Community, the entire Lake itself, forested peaks, valleys and vistas from Mt. Baldy clear to the High Desert.
Built in 1988 by renowned builder Ron Dolman, it was later added onto in 2002 by renowned architect David Abbott and builder Roger Watson. Within and without are architectural features that completely envelope the definitive Old World Architectural character imposed upon by their creators.
The dining and living areas enjoy an openness of baronial dimension making for an opulent yet warm and inviting entertaining living space. The living room features a 27-foot high wood-beamed cathedral ceiling, solid oak paneling, granite fireplace and a magnificent mutli-paned view window, which encompasses all in perfect balance.
The master suite boasts panoramic views, his and hers closets, granite fireplace, sumptuous travertine bath, and a cozy Prophet's Loft that doubles as an office. Additionally, there are two full private bedroom suites, and two other bedrooms in 'Jack and Jill Style'. In all there are seven bedrooms, two of which are guest rooms and offer their own unique personalities. The piece-de-resistance is the Children's Sleeping Quarters Alcove and Playroom (Adults Beware!) with 'Seven Dwarf's Style' built-in bunk beds `a la Beatrix Potter Storybook genre in hand-painted murals complete with attached Wrapping Room.
The main residence consists of an informal formal entry, grand proportion living room with solid oak paneled walls, walls of glass and fireplace, informal formal dining room open to the living room, eat-in kitchen with center island and Garland Gas Range with pantry, that opens to a cozy family room with walk-in fireplace and bar (that leads to a enormous entertaining flagstone patio), solid oak paneled formal den with fireplace, solid oak paneled library overlooking the living room, upstairs reading room, front and back staircase, and sauna steam room. Nearly every room of the main residence offers magnificent panoramic views.
There is an oversized 3 car garage attached to the main residence which offers direct entry hallway with attached laundry room. Additionally, a freestanding one car garage with attached carport, and a surplus of outside storage areas for furniture, tools, equipment and patio furniture.
To further compliment this gracious estate is a free standing yet very sophisticated (easy application) overbuilt State of the Art 2,600 square foot Old World - World Class Recording Studio designed in "Beatles-Abbey-Road" Tradition, offering 14 inch thick Old World Walls double-lined with AURALEX VINYL SOUND PROOFING, towering fireplace, immense 12'X 10' barn doors, a farm kitchen loft overlooking the LIVE ROOM, with TWO ISOLATION ROOMS, A CONTROL ROOM WITH WINDOWS, multiple hand chiseled 10" X 18" limestone corbels that support the beautifully hand hewn cathedral beamed ceiling which alone is a work of art, separate security cedar lined humidified guitar storage room, spiral staircase, temperature controlled Old World English Pub Wine Cellar with stone walls and brick ceilings, complete with limestone bath.
The Music Studio space equally lends itself to anyone involved in the arts and their various artists.
There are multiple heating and air-conditioning zones, and back-up natural gas generators in case of emergency or power outages. The generator for the main home will run the kitchen area and master wing of the home indefinitely, and there is also a generator for the studio. In case of a catastrophe, there is even a back up propane tank.
