About This Home

Are you in the mood for casual lunch at Cosmos Cafe or upscale brunch at Le Reve? Either way, Forest is nearby! This Tudor is tucked into a residential block on the edge of Lowell Damon Woods and Historic Heights-near dining, schools, libraries and shops. History shines through details like the LR fireplace and coved DR ceiling. 1 car garage was extravagant in 1926, the year route 66 was established and Forest was built; today's Tosa homeowners still appreciate having it attached to the house! Updated kitchen boasts classic finishes. Added powder room a few steps down brings convenience. Sunny family room invites a good book, a board game or a movie. Upper level hall bath is gorgeous. Tweak door placement and finishes in the 2nd full upper bath to create a dream primary suite.
