The result is this irresistible Spanish Colonial Revival masterpiece, with the traditional red tile roofs atop thick, white walls, fireplaces, wrought iron embellishments, courtyards, patios, and balconies, all conspiring to invoke a golden era.

The current owners have curated the perfect decor to complement the design, with most items chosen from their extensive world travels.

An upstairs terrace with fabulous mountainviews, low furniture, carpets and pillows transport one to Morocco.
