Three fountains, a footbridge, and three small vineyards complete the exterior charm. Inside, the primary suite has cathedral ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, a walk-in closet, stunning ocean and treetop views and a large wraparound deck. A two-car garage plus all windows and doors alarmed by ADT add ease.The fourth level and converted workshop area were formerly a guest house and stable owned by Hollywood legend Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. Surrounded by celebrity neighbors, with ample street parking and hiking trails easily accessible just a block away, this corner lot is a true storybook wonder.
