In a world that shouts - “modern is better” there are a select group of sophisticated people who choose to live in homes that remind us all of a gentler, elegant past. One such home - 1010 Olive Avenue, designed by Richard Requa, was recently restored for the buyer who wants nothing more than to put down their furniture and entertain friends and family in true Southern California style. While Richard Requa is well-known for his architecture of homes such as this masterpiece in Coronado - he was also the Master Architect for the preservation and renovation of the buildings that now form Balboa Park.
Throughout the 6,220 square feet of this home you will find signature elements of design from the architect. It is because of the preservation of these details that the home’s application for historical designation by the city - approving it as part of its Mills Act - is finalized and awaiting implementation. The history that is not evident; however, are the many stories of the dignitaries and celebrities that were hosted in the home such as John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe. These stories make an already spectacular home “alluring” for both the home owners and their visitors.
If you are among that select group that yearns to experience the joy of living in a true historical masterpiece - 1010 Olive Avenue awaits.

Sellers will consider an offer between- $3,595,000 - $4,595,000
