Detailed Introduction Of This Home
If you’ve been looking for a vintage home filled with charm on a wide tree-lined street, your dreams have come true! Located in the California Heights historic district, this lovely home will greet you like a warm hug. The living room is so inviting and anchored by a beautiful fireplace ensconced in original built-ins. A bay window lets the natural light flow through and offers a cozy nook to curl up with your favorite book and soak up the sun. The dining space has wainscot walls which add to the classic feel of the home. Adjacent to that is a step-down den (or home office) that opens to the backyard. The kitchen has been updated with white cabinets and granite counters, stainless appliances (including the fridge), has abundant storage and pantry space and a breakfast nook. The bedrooms are quite spacious with lots of natural light and have good-sized closets for a home of this age – one with custom organizers. The bathroom has lots of space too – fancy a bath? There’s a tub! A quick shower? There’s a separate shower stall. There’s also lots of counter and storage space. In the hallway there’s a cute space that was the original “phone niche”, as well as linen storage and a cedar lined coat closet. This house is adorned with beautiful espresso-stained oak hardwood flooring throughout, and features dual-paned windows, central heat/air and the roof was replaced in 2016. The backyard is a true delight! Step out onto a large wrap-around deck – the perfect platform to entertain your family and friends. Mature orange and lemon trees provide sweet treats and an invitation to spring! A large grassy area offers space for pets and play. Spend a cozy evening huddled around the brick outdoor fireplace. A 2-car garage with alley access is also home to the laundry area and has storage shelving as well. This home is bordered by major streets and easy freeway access with shopping nearby but is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood that feels worlds away from it all.
