Behind wrought iron gates and drought-tolerant gardens, perched above the street and set far back from the world, 10166 Silverton Avenue feels like a Spanish one level home you would find tucked into the hills of Ojai, Santa Barbara, or Montecito. This is not just a house; it is an authentic 1936 Spanish home, carefully restored, thoughtfully updated, and quietly beautiful in all the right ways.Arched doorways, a restored Spanish-tile fireplace, a formal living room filled with soft light, and a formal dining room that feels like it belongs in another era all speak to the home's original character. Even the hallway tells a story, with a small arched niche where a rotary phone once lived, a charming reminder of the home's history. The kitchen has been updated with care, blending modern function with cabinetry and finishes that respect the home's architectural roots. Updated windows match the era and style beautifully, while major improvements, including a retrofitted foundation, updated electrical, and central air and heat, bring comfort and peace of mind.Every window looks out to green. The home sits elevated with a deep front yard, long driveway, and a sense of privacy that is increasingly rare. Step into the backyard, and you are transported. A pergola-covered patio, mature drought-tolerant landscaping, an oversized two-car detached garage with permitted extension space, and fruit trees so full they bend the branches create a setting that feels more like a retreat than a backyard. Tucked along the back of the property, a small detached structure offers the perfect space for a home office, studio, storage, or a quiet place to work away from the house.For buyers who love authentic Spanish architecture but have been priced out of Silver Lake, Los Feliz, and Altadena, this is an opportunity to own a true character Spanish at an approachable price. A home for someone who appreciates architecture, privacy, character, and the feeling of closing the gate behind them and stepping into their own private world.10166 Silverton Avenue is a two-bedroom, one-bath Spanish with a formal dining room, formal living room, detached garage, and separate bonus space, but more importantly, it is a home that has been brought back to its original charm and quietly updated for modern living. Move in, close the gate, and simply enjoy the beauty of a classic Spanish home the way it was meant to be lived in.
