Description

Step into timeless California Craftsman elegance. This beautifully restored 1917 Craftsman is located in a historic neighborhood and is truly move-in ready. Thoughtfully restored with modern living in mind, the home features major structural updates including a newer roof, windows, plumbing, electrical and a/c units. Original Craftsman architectural details have been carefully brought back to life, including restored door and window frames, engineered hardwood floors, built-in china cabinets, and custom cupboards in closets and bathrooms. Period hardware has been preserved, highlighted by an original set of pocket doors. The remodeled kitchen is spacious and functional, offering a working island and beautiful views with direct access to the back deck. The dining room is accented by a restored built-in china cabinet and provides access to the inviting front porch. The living room showcases the historic fireplace with a stunning mantel and original plaster wall texture. A spacious family room offers additional custom built-ins and storage, with easy access to the kitchen and a charming bonus nook overlooking the backyard perfect for a small office or reading area. The primary suite is privately located in its own wing of the home and features two walk-in closets, a generous primary bath with a walk-in shower, and direct access to the back deck and spa. Two additional bedrooms are filled with natural light and include large closets with custom built-ins. The guest bath has been restored to period style and includes a large tub/shower combination with custom storage. Step outside to a low-maintenance backyard complete with a serene water feature, garden beds, and turf. An oversized one-car garage adds convenience. If you've ever considered living in a classic California Craftsman, this beautifully restored home may be your sign to take the plunge.

    "Regardless of how safe the neighborhood is generally, it is better to always keep doors locked, both house and car. People from outside the neighborhood like to come and walk around in the middle of the night in the hopes that car doors are unlocked and this is happened a number of times throughout the years. "
