About This Home

As of May 2018

Beautiful home with a brand new, lovely English Garden within walking distance to charming, downtown Willow Glen, Bramhill Park, the Library and Willow Glen schools. This home has been updated and modernized from when it was initially built in 1913. Sellers added light fixtures from the Hawaiian Ritz Carlton Hotel, glass door knobs and face plates to retain some of the vintage style. They modernized this Craftsman home a remodeled kitchen, baths, a new forced-air furnace, AC, water softener, dual pane windows, and so much more. See the Video Tour for more amenities. Buyers need to verify sqft of home and lot plus the bed/bath count since there are some differences between what is shown at the Assessor's office and the current configuration. Lot sqft changes may have taken place in 1991 when two additional homes were built on this flag lot with a common driveway. All three homes have the same Craftsman style and are very attractive.
