About This Home
As of July 2023Enter through the trumpet vine-covered trellis gate into a lush front yard garden. At the end of the flagstone path, you are greeted by a covered front porch. This whimsical bungalow retains many of the original details characteristic of homes from the early 1900s, like high ceilings and richly-colored fir floors, and has been thoughtfully updated for modern-day living. You get the best of both worlds. The entry foyer is framed by wooden pillars which lead to the light-filled living room with coved ceilings, a generous dining room with wainscoting, and a sweet built-in corner cabinet. The colorfully tiled kitchen with thick, custom-built redwood slab countertops and cork flooring complement the original architectural features. Both bedrooms are spacious and have original molding, picture railings, and multi-paneled doors. One bedroom has a garden window nook for a desk or reading chair. Two large windows in the bathroom look onto greenery, and the wainscoting walls add old-world charm. From the mud room off the kitchen exit onto a large sunny deck surrounded by a green fence of sweetly scented flowering jasmine & honeysuckle vines. Under the canopy of a majestic walnut tree, the backyard is a petite and private oasis in the midst of a vibrant city. Has detached garage/workshop!
