When Jose Torres' wife ran off with another man, Mr. Torres sold his property to Santa Monica Superior Court Judge George Hutton. George's son Bob took over the property and between 1934 and 1938, he worked on building the adobe house, one room at a time, which still stands today as the main house on this 43.5 acre historic property in the hills of Topanga. The property is comprised of two separate addresses and two separate APNs (4438-018-024 & 4438-018-025). Between the two properties, there are five main structures including the one bedroom, two bathroom caretaker's house perched above the entry gate to the main property. Continue up the long driveway and you will find the original 1 + 1 adobe, the "Cadillac House," a mid-century-inspired guest house and "The Weaving Room" plus various outbuildings. With a solar-heated pool, amphitheater, suspension bridge, a restored windmill which used to power the old well pump, waterfalls, a cave, ocean views, hiking trails and a natural habitat for local wildlife, this magical oasis is close to the city and yet feels like another world. Located close to the center of Topanga, this property offers the perfect combination of seclusion and convenience. Very loved and well-maintained by the current family, the fourth owners, for the last 26 years, this property is a one-of-a-kind find for those seeking a truly special retreat. Please absolutely no drive-bys as there is nothing to see from the road.
