Spectacular restored Craftsman circa 1907 with magnificent grounds and gardens in prime Highland Park. Arrive to a lovely river rock garden wall and a long private driveway, the stately house is set above a breathtaking landscape. The nearly 1/3 acre property unfolds as a private garden estate rarely found in this sought-after neighborhood. A deep, covered front porch stretches around the home, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor connection and a welcoming space for morning coffee or evening gatherings overlooking the verdant grounds. Inside, rich period details take center stage, including coffered ceilings, wainscoting, original hardwood floors, and two striking original river rock fireplaces that anchor the living room and den parlors. The formal living areas offer both scale and intimacy, while the large eat-in kitchen blends vintage charm with everyday functionality, featuring custom wood cabinetry, generous prep space, and direct access to the outdoors. A formal dining room with classic built-ins china cabinets, and incredible views, perfect for hosting magical dinner parties. Behind original pocket doors, lies separate quarters ideal for guests, a home office, au-pair or rental accommodations, with a cozy library, kitchenette, and French doors to a private porch and garden. Upstairs you'll find 4 spacious bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms. The primary was originally 2 rooms, and could be separated again if you require 5 bedrooms. This rare property is a true gardener's par
