Spanish Style Home Full of Romance and Character

A Spanish style home full of romance and ageless character for the Valentine in you. Located adjacent to the California Heights historical district in the city of Signal HIll is this classic Spanish charmer. The turquoise awning and flared roofline caught my attention.

Check out the welcoming entrance with tiled garden court. Head inside and find a cozy period fireplace with a wall of built-ins and home sweet home decorating to show off in and make you want to call it your own.

Original oak hardwood floors. Period light fixtures. Cutest retro cottage kitchen with retro flooring and vintage stove. Remodeled bathroom with period finishes. What is not to love? We have to look.

Love the colorful tiles on the steps and warm tiles in the front entrance courtyard.

I didn’t expect to see this cute vintage kitchen.

Hope the retro double oven and buffet come with the sale of the house and if not for gosh sake’s negotiate. I’ll take the spindled chair and retro trimline phone too.

I am not sure what room this ceiling fixture is in, but this Spanish style house has period pieces throughout giving it the character and romance.

Newly on the market and priced to sell for $459,000. If only this scrumptious Spanish style home wasn’t in California and so far away. It’s just right.

I love the curb appeal of this home. So pretty!

  There are not any houses like this here in Illinois where I live so I never get tired of featuring Spanish or Mediterranean style homes.

this was my house that i sold last year. it was a joy to restore it. i miss this house terribly, but i had lost my job and had to leave California. thank you for profiling it and for the nice comments. i am currently enjoying life in a beautiful environment on the oregon coast….in a much less charming house.

  I am so happy to hear from you David. I loved profiling your home and remember falling in love as soon as I laid eyes on it. Nice to hear you sold the home and are enjoying life in Oregon.

    thank you, sue. i miss that house a lot but i am in a much more peaceful place…a ranch style house built in the early 90’s on nearly two acres of forested property. by the way, the stove stayed with the house but the buffet moved with me. my “spies” tell me that the house is not being very well maintained… which makes me sad. best to you, sue.

      Thanks David, I got a kick out of that “the stove stayed” and am happy to hear you took the buffet with you.

I love Spanish style homes – they are quite common in my little town.

That kitchen is so cute with the checkerboard floor and the vintage stove.

$459,000 is quite cheap for a house in that style in California. Signal Hill is not a prime location. It is near Long Beach where that same house would probably be over $1 million.

We have friends who live on a lake in Minnesota. Oddly enough, there historic home is Spanish style. I have always wondered who built it and how they came to build Spanish style in the north.

  I know California is expensive, but the house prices still amaze me. I am jealous of areas that have this house style. So interesting about the Spanish style home especially in Minnesota.
