Down the hall, the home's three bedrooms offer restful, light-filled retreats, while the two fully remodeled bathrooms elevate daily routines into something closer to ritual — deep soaking tubs, decorative tiled showers, and finishes that feel plucked from a boutique hotel. And beneath the Spanish tile and timeless charm sits a very modern advantage: solar, owned outright and paid in full, powering this storybook home well into its next chapter.
