About this House

Sunny split-level 2+BR/1BA craftsman bungalow with deep, shady yard and oodles of storage, right in the heart of Temescal. This home has been newly updated, but retains many original Craftsman features, a perfect mix of vintage and modern. Amazing location - blocks away from Homeroom, Mama's Royal Cafe, Temescal Alley, Claremont farmer's market and Temescal/Piedmont Ave. shopping. An urban dwellers' delight! Available August 1.

From the sweet front porch, the front door opens into a small entryway. To the right is the light-filled living room with a decorative fireplace flanked by built-in original shelving. The sunny, central dining room has the original wainscoting, boxed beam ceiling and built-ins. There is a cozy sunroom on the main level between the entryway and the kitchen. With a full wall of built-in bookshelves, it's the perfect spot for a home office or dreamy reading room.

The eat-in kitchen is spacious and updated, with butcher block and quartz countertop and a handy wall of original built-in cabinetry. It also has plenty of storage space, with Insta-friendly open shelving to display all your favorite wares. The stainless steel refrigerator, gas stove and dishwasher are all brand new, purchased in 2021.

Between the kitchen and the dining room is a flight of stairs leading up to the home's upper level, with two bedrooms and full bathroom. Both bedrooms are sunny and serene, with hardwood floors, ample closet space, and updated windows. The bathroom, with original 1940's tile and reed glass window, has a deep tub with shower.

Down a short flight of stairs in the kitchen is a large garage and laundry area, as well as access to the large backyard. There is a new HE washer/dryer and plenty of room for a workshop, music room, or just extra storage. The private landscaped rear garden is perfect for play and entertaining! Landscaped and shady, it comes with a grill and patio furniture and room to make it your own.

Fantastic and central location. 4 blocks to MacArthur BART, 6 blocks to Piedmont Avenue. Easy trip to nearly anywhere you need to go!

    "We have regular break ins and muggings. Too close to bart and too close to the high school. Neighbors keep to themselves. Not the ideal place people purport it to be. Further from bart is best "
