A moment in time...A magical chrysalis over almost 100 years has transformed an original 1928 weekend cabin, designed by Heth Wharton as a weekend retreat in the exclusive Rustic Canyon Uplifters Ranch, into the storybook reprieve that currently presents. A soulful 3-story English Tudor captivates with a sense of whimsy and irresistible character. Beamed cathedral ceilings and custom herringbone wood flooring coalesce classic and cool. Delightful stained-glass windows cast dancing colors throughout the day's evolving sunlight. Period vintage lighting elevates the emotional experience in each room. Each of the 5 en suite bedrooms offers a unique intimacy. The crowning third floor is a dreamy, sun-dappled, romantic primary retreat with tree-top views of the property's soothing grounds. The ground floor is believed to have been the genesis of the original 20's home which is emphasized by a theatrical lounge and an authentic speakeasy, still hidden behind secret doors, used to entertain members of the Uplifters during prohibition. Detached 3 car garage with spacious studio above. The most recent addition to this sentimental property is a sparkling saline +/- 54 foot saline swimming pool and jacuzzi. Expansive verdant environs marry a heavenly and enchanting estate in a divine canyon sanctuary.
