This beautiful home is a Taylor-Wheeler built in l934 for Burton and Lena Todd who were relatives of Rosanna Wilson, the developer of the historic Wilson Island. The stucco walls, red clay tile roof, arched openings, wrought-iron details, coved/plaster interiors and pegged hardwood floors are all features commonly associated with Taylor-Wheeler’s work in the 1930’s. It is a four bedroom, three bath on .37 acres and approximately 3,434 square feet.

The arched doorway welcomes visitors to the living room. Original refurbished pegged hardwood floors and arched walkways and tile work also lead up to the second story master bedroom which is a full cedar room that features a Bachelder tiled bathroom. Batchelder was a renowned art tile maker originally based in Pasadena whose pieces often appear in Spanish revival homes in California. There is also a secret “Safe room” that has been converted into a closet.

The living room features a curved ceiling with plaster walls and built-ins. There are also original woodwork beams and a stunning Batchelder tile fireplace. The artwork is from local artist Dominique James.

The first bedroom is soft and airy and feels like a little sanctuary with gentle tones and whimsical details. Sunlight dances across the custom-made window treatments. The bedroom has plaster walls with crown molding accents and crank windows.

The bathroom has handcrafted Batchelder tilework and a sunken cast iron enamel tub.

The second bedroom is bright and cheerful. It also has plaster walls with crown molding and cranks windows much like the first bedroom.

The sunroom is the true highlight of the home. There is original tilework along the trim and it is surrounded by windows that look out into the backyard. The two original doors open to the backyard.

An arched entry leads into a dining space that feels intimate and inviting. Artwork includes local artist Bebe Long and as well as Pacific Grove thrift store finds. The walls are plaster with built-in light fixtures original to the home.

With hand-painted tiles and open shelving built-ins, the cozy nook invites long breakfasts beneath sunlit windows. The room also features crown moldings. The kitchen is completely tiled in yellow. Unfortunately, it was update with makeshift counter tops and cabinets that will be removed when the kitchen is remodeled.

Tucked away at the rear of the home is the casita. It’s ideal as a creative studio, reading room or office. It is a full mother-in-law suite with a remodeled bathroom, kitchen and working fireplace. Remodeling will be completed in early 2026.
