Next, every Window and Exterior Door, upstairs and downstairs, has Custom wooden privacy shutters; every Door has a Screen door, so that the exterior doors can be left open; and EVERY Door (interior and exterior) has a fully-restored 1902's Dormer-Windows above it, which fully operate, and which allow air to circulate throughout the house if you choose to not have the air conditioner running on cool days! Lastly, the Main House has two new air-conditioning units, 5-ton and 4-ton, Central air and heat and, the property comes with a Water Filtration system and a new Irrigation/Sprinkler system.
Now, moving onto the Carriage House, where Dr. Miller, kept his Horses and Buggy Carriage and, where the help staff slept in the upstairs (during the early 1900's).
This versatile, fully restored / remodeled Carriage House, which can be used as a separate address for business or rental purposes or as a mother-in-law Suite, and which has separate Electric, Gas and Water hookups from the Main House, boasts original and restored Wooden floors throughout and tall ceilings.

The Carriage House now has central air and heat and this building, is LOVED by all! Both houses are comfortable, a talking point for sure, and a TRUE MUST-SEE (Realtor pictures do not do it justice).
As for the secure yard, Both properties are encased within a secure metal fence leading to a brick-wooden fence with a heavy metal security gate in the back of the property near the CH that allows cars to securely enter the property. There is also a security gate in-between the Main House and the Carriage House that can be locked to separate the two properties. The back end of the property, which has the electronic slide gate, has parking sufficient for 12 to 14 cars, as well as a large Storage shed, designed to match the two houses on the property. The back yard of the property is large enough for development such as adding a Pool/Spa and or a large Garage. The lawn in the front and back of the Main House has real Bermuda grass, coral rock throughout, a side yard for storage (or a dog run) and brick and cement designed outdoor flooring. The backyard also has a beautiful two-tiered lighted fountain, dusk to dawn ambiance tree lighting and two lighted benches. In the front yard of the Main House you will find a porch-swing designed to match the colors of the historic building, and, best of all, TWO (2) magnificent Palm trees given to Dr. Miller in 1903, by the Queen of Hawaii, before Hawaii was a State, to celebrate the completion of this home. These two historic Palm trees are now, well-kept and as beautiful as they were when they were delivered by the Queen over 120 years ago (except way taller).
In closing, this property is a MUST SEE and a HIDDEN GEM, and, so is this quaint secure Historic Neighborhood. You will definitely love it!
