Agent Remarks: Welcome to 3008 Karen, an incredible example of true Cliff May Rancho living at its finest. In true Cliff May style, you're greeted by a custom wood privacy wall and low maintenance landscaping paired evenly with the detached two car garage. Once you make your way inside, it's hard not to admire the newly constructed, custom heated pool and thoughtfully designed sitting deck which surrounds the in ground gas powered fire pit. After you've had a moment to take in those first few steps, you'll make your way into the second yard space that's perfectly sheltered behind your two car garage with permitted ADU plans already in hand. Walking into the main living space, it's hard to not let your eye follow the handcrafted meticulous birch cabinetry and soft flowing finishes that exude sophistication and simplicity. With the original living room's mistlite glass panels still intact, three well placed skylights and every fixture tailored to the home's original era, even the faintest of mid-century enthusiasts can appreciate the feeling that this home brings. While following the polished concrete flooring into each room, you'll be sure to notice the skylights in both bathrooms which make the actual mid century lighting an option and not a necessity. The primary en suite has not only been recently reimagined, but also carries the home's pallet seamlessly as well. With every Rancho comes the question of storage and in this case the 120 square foot, recently built storage shed lightens the load that neighbors in this community know all too well. With a newly replaced furnace, central AC, a water softener and additional water filtration system and every inch of this home meticulously maintained, you can easily tell that the owners of 3008 Karen have been conscious and loving stewards of such a special Cliff May Rancho.

    Sheltered behind a privacy fence of clear heart redwood and the canopy of a mature Palo Verde tree- find this well updated example of architect Cliff May's 1954 Rancho Estates home. Floor to ceiling windows and polished concrete floors create a seamless transition between indoors and out, making the home feel much larger than its measurements would indicate. A skylit and open plan kitchen of custom walnut cabinetry topped with Caesarstone is at its center, with a large island workspace. The rich walnut seen here is utilized elsewhere as paneling and built-in storage to great effect. Jack and Jill guest bedrooms feature May's signature window walls, obscure glass panels, and clerestory windows to invite natural light into every corner. Both bathrooms have seen sophisticated renovations- with Carrerra marble tile at the guest bath and a glass tile in the primary bath chosen to complement the original terrazzo shower pan. The primary bedroom, living room, and dining area all feature window walls that open directly to the patios and gardens, expanding living spaces outward. The surrounding gardens and landscape provide areas of sun and shade, as well as places for entertaining and outdoor dining. A raised Ipe deck encompasses a fire pit to create a central gathering place. The detached two car garage is well situated at the front of the property, fortifying the classic mid-century modern compound. Located in close proximity to the spectacular 800 acre El Dorado Park and nature preserve, as well as to the San Gabriel River path and its direct access to Seal Beach. Tree lined streets, excellent schools, and a sense of community that rivals just about any in the city.
