About This Home

As of August 2016

Majestically perched atop the hills of Silver Lake sits this updated and charming 1950's Traditional home. With mid-century traces like a sunken living room with classic build-ins that overlook the downtown skyline, this attractive home has been remodeled to create an open living plan with fresh hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen boasts sleek appliances and flows effortlessly into the dining area. Anderson front door and Anderson uv reduction dual-paned windows, recently installed copper plumbing, electrical wiring, and recessed LED lighting are even more elements of this home's updated finishes. Both bathrooms have been completely transformed with attractive fixtures throughout. A wonderfully landscaped front and back yard features mature fruit trees and is further complemented by an elevated patio with a great little bonus studio for the ideal creative space. The large 3-car garage offers a new door and plenty of room for your car or storage.
