This historic property has recently undergone a meticulous restoration. Built in the 1890's by Isaac Newton Van Nuys, this 3-story Victorian was moved to its current location in Windsor Square by his son J. Benton Van Nuys in 1915.

The luxurious main residence offers 8 Bedrooms and 7.5 baths. The 2 bedroom 1 bath carriage house is located above the spacious garage. A car turntable is set into the driveway. Ornate iron gates and tall hedges surround and privatize the property, providing an escape from the bustling city. A labyrinthine landscape frames the stunning path to the main entry.
