Welcome to CASA ORLANDO! This very special & private Spanish Colonial Revival Hacienda was completely rebuilt in 2014 from the foundations up and artistically embellished with antique architectural elements throughout. You won't believe this is a new house when you see: The hand hewn redwood cathedral ceiling w/ the original stenciling in the living room (salvaged from a 100 + year Spanish house in Santa Monica); Antique stained glass windows salvaged from centuries old buildings; Old World hand plastered walls, Versailles oak parquet and wide plant flooring: Hand crafted Spanish Colonial lighting from 20th Century Lighting; Antique Portuguese tiles; Batchelder tile wood burning; and the list goes on . . . Walking through the entrance you're greeted by a beautiful bricked courtyard area, lush w/ greenery & tranquil cascading fountain. Through the front door to the left you have a great room w/ the soaring beamed & stenciled cathedral ceiling, fireplace & a large Spanish Colonial chandelier and antique stained glass roundels. The acoustics of this room are amazing! Perfect for a grand piano or state of the art sound system!
