3520 Elmwood DR, Riverside, CA 92506

Description

At the turn of the century proponents for the City of Riverside such as Frank Miller, Charles Lummis and Arthur Benton were touting the entire region as the “New Mediterranean.” As a result, they took architectural inspiration from Southern Spain and North Africa leading to one of the biggest architectural movements of the period, the Spanish Colonial Revival. This neighborhood, known as the Wood Streets, was predominantly developed in the 1920’s and therefore has some of the best and most cohesive examples of Spanish Revival, as well as other European Revival styles. Walking these quiet streets you’ll enjoy Spanish, Tudor, Normandy and Craftsman style homes that homeowners have cherished and maintained for over 100 years. This home on Elmwood Drive has recently undergone a restoration and although it maintains most of it’s original details the main components of the home have all been upgraded. There’s too much for me to type here so schedule your tour today and I’ll be happy to give you all the details.
