Beautifully preserved historic Ole Hanson home known as “Casa Miramar.” Originally built in 1926 for San Clemente's volunteer fire chief making this the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the early culture of the Spanish Village by the Sea. The historic aesthetic and style envisioned by Ole Hanson himself is evident in its red tile roof and white stucco walls. This residence is a Spanish architectural dream. The original 1926 front house is single level and has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. An addition in the back has exterior stairs leading to a separate, private entrance to the 1 bedroom, 1 bath casita on the upper level. The front house is on the Mills Act as a historic property for substantially lower property taxes. A great tax benefit! The front house has been tastefully updated, but still retains the original look and design of the home. Some of the original features include the signature gas fireplace and tilework, the original rustic wood front door, brick archways, and hand hewn oak floors. Updates include stainless steel appliances including a Viking range and built-in microwave and a gorgeous, updated bathroom. Both the master bedroom and the kitchen have access to a quaint deck to enjoy your morning coffee. The casita showcases a spacious open floorplan, a lovely set of French doors opening to a Juliet balcony with hill views, a beautifully designed kitchen, and a large walk-in shower. The gated driveway leads to an attached carport with four storage closets two of which include separate laundry hook ups for both the front house and the casita. Centrally located and close to the best of San Clemente! Only three blocks to Del Mar with a multitude of eclectic shops and restaurants and a short walk to the beach and the San Clemente Beach Trail!
