Description: (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries.) <br /> <br />Clad in irregularly laid Mission tiles, this one-story residence is a replica of a "Spanish home" presented in the mail order <br />catalog "New Spanish Bungalows," published by the Bungalow Craft Company of Los Angeles. Designed by architect Rex D. <br />Weston, the residence features an inward facing, rectangular plan and smooth stucco finish with little applied ornament. The <br />low-pitched roof ends with shallow overhanging eaves and carved brackets beneath. An asymmetrical composition <br />characterizes the faqade, which is dominated by a low-pitched front gable. Centered beneath the gable is a three-over-four <br />fixed pane window with thin wood frames and slightly projecting sill. An extended wood lintel marks the top of the window, <br />mirroring the design in the pattern book. Three circular tile vents pierce the gable apex. The south end of the gable is <br />interrupted by a side-gabled wing, which encloses the principal entry and porte cochere. Fronted by a wrought-iron gate, the <br />entry features an unornamented archway, which leads to a terrace. Balancing the composition of the faqade is a prominent <br />pointed arch on the property's south side, forming a porte cochere. The north side displays an arched entryway with a wood <br />gate made of vertical wood planks and turned posts forming an arch in the upper portion. Four glazed wall tiles, arranged in <br />a diamond, are centered above the archway. The north elevation features an attached chimney, clad in stucco and capped <br />with a brick chimney hood. Alterations include a roof added to the interior patio. The property is otherwise highly intact, in <br />excellent repair, and enhanced by mature trees and landscaping. <br /> <br />*P3b.
