...La Lomita offers many special architectural features such as antique mahogany double French doors that open out to the screened porch, stamped stained concrete floors, custom cabinetry, and handmade Tavera Tile from Mexico throughout the large kitchen and bathrooms of both houses. There is also a 25x25 square foot barn, ideal for a workshop and storage plus vegetable garden. There is a 60-panel solar panel system installed on the main house and casita in 2012.
