About This Home

As of May 2022

An elegant 1909 craftsman cottage was transformed into a stylish 4 bedroom home with elan (and permits). The original details are intact from the wainscoting, to the built-in window seats and cabinets, the beamed ceilings, the generous gracious rooms. Add to that a kitchen remodel, an upstairs with high ceilings and fabulous light and the house fairly sings. Supporting systems include solar panels, low-flow fixtures, hot water on demand, dual pane windows and skylights. A diverse naturalized garden full of bulbs, perennials, veggies, fruit trees comes with a chart of all that is there from the compost bins to the pollinators. And, at the peak of it all is the Parker St. Puma mounted on the west side of the house as a totem for the well-being of the neighborhood.
