According to an inscribed legend in the front steps, this is the "Casa La Firma," built in 1908 by E.M. Dillman. A historic photograph identifies the house at a subsequent date as the home of Lonnie Blanton. One of the most unique homes in Upland, the "Casa La Firma" is an outstanding & intact example of the American Foursquare style which characterized American homes from about 1894 to 1908. This generic form of a two-story, hipped roofed box was manipulated by builders and architects across the nation into expressions of the American Colonial Revival, Craftsman & Prairie styles. This property has lots of charm & character with approx. 2,680 sqft of spacious living space, 5 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms. The unique home has a good size front wrap around porch. Features: some original windows, handwoven made carpeting & walk-in closets. Spacious kitchen with original Chestnut cabinets & nook area. Formal living & dining room. Family room. Laundry room with built in desk. Basement. Huge estate size lot with wood fencing. Fruit trees. Detached 2 car garage+plenty of room for parking or RV parking. Newer roof-approx 5 years old.
