346 Carroll Park E

Welcome to 346 Carroll Park East, a Mediterranean Villa that beautifully blends historic details and modern updates. With grounds more than a quarter of an acre, this property is one the larger lots within the Carroll Park Historic District. Originally constructed in 1919, the estate has been thoughtfully expanded and upgraded. Offering four bedrooms and three updated bathrooms, interior space is of the highest order. The ground floor primary bedroom suite is exceptional with its walk-in closet, dual vanity, soaking tub, shower and separate chamber room. Perhaps the highlight of the interiors is the exceptional floor plan, the expertly sited public spaces are connected, open and ideal for entertaining, while the private spaces are discreetly placed along the northern wing of the first floor and the private escape of the second floor. Truly the heart of the home, the contemporary kitchen is exceptional with its professional-grade appliance suite, expansive custom cabinetry, separate prep sink and abundant stone countertops. Indoor outdoor integration is expertly accomplished through the connection of the open kitchen, adjacent family room and rear entertaining spaces through five sets of French doors. A completely private backyard sanctuary is created through substantial mature landscaping that shields adjacent properties. For those that crave modern upgrades and conveniences, relish in the contemporary heating and air conditioning systems (yes, AC!), the upgraded wiring and electrical system (including a 200-amp panel!), wired sound (perfect for gatherings!), owned solar panels (reduce those bills!) and EV-charging station (go green!). With simple access to Retro Row, the Broadway Corridor, Bixby Park, Bluff Park and the Paths along the Pacific Ocean, the magnitude of this location is undeniable. With its numerous contemporary upgrades, supreme floor plan, grounding historic details and prime location, this estate presents a rare opportunity to attain a crown jewel.
